The only National Day is Sept 16
Sarawak for Sarawakians (S4S) is urging for an end to the misinformation about Aug 31 and its significance in history, especially amongst schoolchildren. As the state government spends huge amounts on celebrations in Sri Aman, dwarfing any that took place on July 22, 2016 or are likely to take place on Sept 16, the group are asking why Malaya’s Merdeka continues to be portrayed as the primary celebration of the nation, even here at state level.
