Prof Ewe wishing selamat menyambut Bulan Kebangsaan dan Selamat Hari Malaysia

UTAR President Ir Prof Dr Ewe Hong Tat said, “This year, in the move to support the ‘Sambutan Bulan Kebangsaan dan Kibarkan Jalur Gemilang’ campaign by the government as well as to enliven the spirit of ‘Rukun Negara’, the organising committee has taken up the challenge to conduct the event online by abiding the physical distancing measure to minimise the risks of Covid-19 infection. Thus, the event was rebranded as Virtual Go as ONE Carnival 4.0. The approach runs in line with the 63rd Merdeka theme ‘Malaysia Prihatin’, where we care for each other during this trying time. I wish for the future prosperity of fellow countrymen and everlasting peace of our nation.”
