KOTA KINABALU, Aug 27 — Sarawak is set to host the 2019 Malaysia Day celebrations in Kuching on Sept 16.

Scheduled to be held at Padang Merdeka from 5.30 pm, the celebrations will be a continuation of the National Month and the Fly the Jalur Gemilang campaigns held here from Aug 2 to 4.

According to a statement from the Malaysia Day organising committee, the theme of this year’s celebration would be Sayangi Malaysiaku: Malaysia Bersih (Love Our Malaysia: A Clean Malaysia).

The theme was chosen because it symbolises the unity and spirit of love for the country’s well-being and prosperity, while fostering and instilling a sense of integrity among all Malaysians.
