Last year, Atria shopping complex at Damansara Jaya had hosted a poster drawing contest entitled “I Love My Country”. The drawings are based on Merdeka theme, the independance theme.
As we would be celebration Hari Kebangsaan on 31 August, it is good to be reminded again of unity and independence. Below is one of the short videos I did on some motivational Merdeka Day messages:
When I visited Atria earlier this year, they have actually framed the paintings up for display at a section of their mall:
The drawings were detailed, beautiful, inspiring, colourful and showed the theme of unity from the perspective of the younger generation:
Hopefully with Merdeka celebrations around the corner, art class teachers and organizations would organize simple contest to nurture the creativity and patriotism for our beloved country, Malaysia.
