Appreciate Our Warriors, Says Yang Di-pertuan Agong

KUALA LUMPUR, July 30 (Bernama) — Yang di-Pertuan Agong Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin Thursday called on all Malaysians in the spirit of 1Malaysia show their appreciation to warriors still living or the widows and next-of-kin of those who have perished.

He said Malaysians owed a great deal these warriors who put their lives on the line to defend the sovereignty of Malaysia.

“Many among them sacrificed their lives on the battlefield to protect the freedom were are enjoying today,” Tuanku Mizan said in his Warriors Day message broadcast on the RTM1 television channel here tonight.

Tuanku Mizan also praised the government for valuing their contributions and always giving priority to the welfare of warriors and their families.

He also called on members of the security forces to follow in these warriors footsteps towards ensuring peace and stability.

“To warriors still living but became disabled and to families who lost their breadwinners in their (warriors’) sacrifices for our beloved nation, I hope they will be able to meet challenges that they may face with full fortitude,” he said.
