00:00 Chunganu will be using the Federal Government's National Day logo and theme, despite calls
00:07 for states run by Perikatan National to use their own version.
00:12 Chunganu Mnt. Basa Amat Samsuri Mokhtar said the state will stick with its earlier decision
00:18 to use the logo and theme that was decided by Puchajaya.
00:23 His decision to use the federal theme and logo comes in the wake of Perilis Mnt. Basa
00:28 Shukri Ramli saying that the state would use the federal theme but not the logo because
00:33 it contained the words "Malaysia Madani".
00:36 Samsuri's decision has drawn praise from Chunganu PH Chairman Raja Kamarul Bahrain
00:42 Shah who said it should be emulated by the other PN state governments.
00:47 He said National Day should be celebrated by all regardless of political affiliation.
00:53 Earlier, PN Youth Chief Amat Fadli Shari unveiled a proposed alternative for use by Perilis,
01:01 Kedah, Kelantan and Chunganu.
01:04 He suggested the theme "Teguh Muafakat Malaysia Sejahtera" and a logo resembling a hibiscus,
01:10 the national flower.
01:12 The proposal drew criticisms from the government and NGOs alike as well as Gerakan President
01:18 Dominic Lau whose party is a PN component member.
