Colourful performances await visitors to the Malaysia Day celebration at Padang Merdeka on Sept 16.
KOTA KINABALU: Teenagers Khaleeda Idzwani and Syafiah Qistina sacrificed their school holidays to be part of a significant event in Sabah – this year's national-level Malaysia Day celebration here.
Although their contribution was modest, the 17-year-olds were thrilled to be part of the event, which will bring them face-to-face with the country’s leaders.
Uh-oh! Daily quota reached.
