KUCHING: As today is Sarawak’s Independence Day and with the spirit of patriotism, the Sarawak Information Department (JAPEN) has taken the initiative to put up the Jalur Gemilang and Sarawak flags around their headquarters at Jalan Diplomatik yesterday.
The same initiative was also carried out at the District Information offices throughout Sarawak.
This was done to instil patriotism and nationalism, confidence, loyalty, citizenship, courage, independence, identity and national sovereignty among Malaysians.
Next month, the launching of the state-level National Month Celebration and Flying of Jalur Gemilang is expected to be held on August 13 in Kuching.
