Diamond Jubilee logo, moderate celebration

KUALA LUMPUR, May 6 – UMNO headquarters unveils its Diamond Jubilee or its 75th anniversary logo.


In a media statement, Secretary-General Datuk Seri Ahmad Maslan said it was selected in a competition held to mark the day.

“The logo can be used in any publicity about the anniversary,” he said.

Earlier this year, UMNO invited Malaysians to take part in the contest. The party will celebrate it on May 11.

The contest was divided into three categories namely poem writing, short video and logo creation. Those 16 above were eligible to participate.

In a related development, Ahmad said May 11 will observe a moderate celebration since the Movement Control Order (MCO) was enforced again in Kuala Lumpur on May 7.

Among the suggested events to celebrate it are hoisting UMNO flag at all state and divisional offices as well as in certain areas deemed appropriate, ‘solat hajat’ and Yassin recitation.
