PUTRAJAYA, Oct 25 — A programme to celebrate two years of the establishment of the Madani government will be held over three days from November 22 at the Malaysia International Trade and Exhibition Centre in Kuala Lumpur, said Communications Minister Fahmi Fadzil.
Fahmi, who is also Unity Government spokesman, said this was agreed by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim at today’s Cabinet meeting.
“It coincides with the date the Prime Minister took his oath of office, which was on November 24, 2022. Details of the programme will be announced later,” he said at a weekly press conference after the Cabinet meeting here.
Last year, the Madani Government’s first anniversary was celebrated from December 8 to 10 at Bukit Jalil National Stadium, drawing over 230,000 visitors.
Meanwhile, commenting on Malaysia’s 2025 Asean chairmanship, Fahmi said his ministry has directed the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission to ensure all meeting venues are equipped with 5G high-speed internet facilities.
“All Asean meeting venues, whether at the senior officials or ministerial level, must be equipped with 5G internet facilities. This is being worked on by the Communications Ministry,” he said.
He noted that Bernama and RTM have been appointed the official media and main broadcasting media, respectively, for Malaysia’s Asean chairmanship in 2025.
“I believe that with the selection of RTM and Bernama for the series of Asean meetings to be held throughout 2025, all media partners in the country and from abroad can better coordinate their coverage to ensure more accurate information dissemination,” he said.
On behalf of the Prime Minister and the Cabinet, Fahmi took the opportunity to wish all Malaysians of the Hindu faith a Happy Deepavali. The Festival of Lights will be celebrated on October 31.
