Anwar emphasised that the values embodied by Kaamatan and Gawai reflect the foundations of national unity and social cohesion, which continue to be vital in maintaining harmony across the country.
“Within the diversity of traditions, languages and cultures that colour our nation, these celebrations remind us that Malaysia’s strength lies in its ability to maintain harmony in diversity, strengthen the spirit of brotherhood and nurture a culture of mutual respect,” he said.
Anwar also extended his Kaamatan and Gawai greetings to the people of Sabah and Sarawak.
“I wish everyone in Sabah and Sarawak a Kotobian Tadau Tagazo Do Kaamatan and Gayu Guru Gerai Nyamai. May these celebrations bring prosperity, blessings and further strengthen the spirit of consensus and togetherness that forms the cornerstone of harmony in our beloved Malaysia,” he said. — DayakDaily
