It's a wrap! The SEA Games have ended on a victorious note for Malaysians as local athletes give us another reason to celebrate: Monday, 4 September has been declared a public holiday by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak!
Najib first teased an overly enthusiastic crowd as they chanted "Cuti, cuti!", saying it's not easy to declare a public holiday
"There are too many public holidays in Malaysia. But... due to the overwhelming support and the tremendous performances by our athletes, therefore, the government would like to announce 4 September as a public holiday," Najib announced to a roaring crowd.
Yup, we now have a five-day long weekend!
Happy national day Malaysia! ❤❤ P/s:latest picture haha #MalaysiaBoleh #KL2017 #BangkitBersama #KLSeaGames2017 #ClosingCeremony #Rimau pic.twitter.com/utxTyYxFFy
