PRIME Minister Anwar Ibrahim today unveiled the logo for Malaysia Madani – a concept he introduced as an effort to drive and restore Malaysia’s dignity and glory in the global arena.

According to an infographic posted on his Facebook and Twitter pages, the logo features a palm-like design bearing the four colours of the Jalur Gemilang.

The five fingers with red and white stripes highlighted in the logo symbolise the principles of Rukun Negara, the foundation of Malaysia’s ideology, while the blue circle on the “palm” signifies consensus and unity among Malaysians.

The crescent moon symbol, which represents Islam as the religion of the federation, is used as one of the elements of the logo, in addition to the 14-point star, which signifies unity among the 13 states and Federal Territories of the federation.

The four colours used for the logo are blue (national unity, inclusivity and brotherhood), red (courage, identity and determination), yellow (value of tradition, culture and local wisdom), and white (nobility, purity of heart and good will).

Anwar in the same post said he proposed Malaysia Madani as the country and its multicultural society’s way forward.

“We will strive to uphold these values to the best of our abilities,” he said.

The concept, which he officially introduced on January 19, was based on six pillars – sustainability, prosperity, innovation, respect, trust and compassion. – Bernama, February 2, 2023.
