Touching on Malaysia Day, Toh Puan said that today’s challenges was to make the youngsters understand the meaning of Malaysia.

“This must be explained to all Malaysians especially the young generation and interior community who might still be confused and not clear about the whole point, so that they will not wander away with all the slander and incitement based on personal agenda,” she added.

She also invited all community to make Malaysia a prosperous and peaceful country without hoping for assistance from outsiders.
