RESIDENTS and traders in Kuala Lumpur have slammed Federal Territories Minister Tengku Adnan Tengku Mansor’s recent remarks that they were unpatriotic for failing to fly the Jalur Gemilang, saying that many city folk choose to show their loyalty to the country in other ways.

Bukit Bandaraya Residents Association president M. Ali said that Tengku Adnan, who is popularly known as Kunan, was misguided in his observations that Kuala Lumpur residents were unappreciative and unpatriotic simply because many did not fly the national flag ahead of Merdeka celebrations.
