Separated yet still connected
ON Thursday, we will celebrate Malaysia Day, the day on which, 58 years ago, the Federation of Malaya, Sarawak, North Borneo (as Sabah was then called) and Singapore came together to form the Federation of Malaysia.
Putting the pandemic behind us
ON Thursday, Malaysia’s new Health Minister told the nation that by the end of next month, Covid-19 will no longer be considered a pandemic. It will be classified as endemic.
Coming together as one family
SIX decades ago, Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra Al-Haj declared Malaya’s independence at the Selangor Club’s padang in Kuala Lumpur. Aug 31, 1957 was the day that the Federation of Malaya gained its Merdeka (freedom) from the British colonisers.
Treat privileges cautiously
The war against Covid-19 is still raging and will continue for a while yet. We just have to learn to continue warding against being exposed to this persistent virus.
We need to keep complying with SOP
IF you have been fully vaccinated, chances are you are eagerly waiting for a relaxation of Covid-19 standard operating procedures.
We’re winning the vaccination game
EVEN before the Olympics began in Tokyo on Friday, Malaysia won big time on the global stage: our vaccination rate was among the fastest in the world.
Trust the vaccine, trust the data
THIS week, we saw the Covid-19 numbers in five digits.
We are stronger together
THE White Flag movement could not have started at a more critical time: Covid-19 cases were consistently high despite the full lockdown and so many of us – from all walks of life and circumstances – were in despair.
