KUALA LUMPUR (Oct 19, 2009) : Beginning next year, Sept 16 will be made a public holiday for the whole country in conjunction with the Malaysia Day celebration. Yahoo! That is one more holiday for us, right.
Some interesting facts :
1) Semenanjung obtained their independence from colonial rule on Aug 31 1963
2) Federation of Malaysia was formed on Sept 16 1963 when the Federation of Malaya, Singapore, Sarawak and Sabah mutually agreed to become a new nation.
