Malaysians should follow proper guidelines when displaying the Jalur Gemilang to show respect for national unity and sovereignty.

The National Unity Ministry aims to educate the public on correct flag procedures and instil patriotism among the youth.

Misuse of the Jalur Gemilang, such as flying it upside down, can lead to fines or imprisonment under Malaysian law.

KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 5 — Malaysians are urged to exercise greater care and always refer to the proper guidelines when installing and displaying the Jalur Gemilang.

National Unity Minister Datuk Aaron Ago Dagang said the Jalur Gemilang was a symbol of national sovereignty, dignity and unity that all Malaysians, regardless of race, religion or political affiliation, must respect.

“The national flag carries our identity, history and pride as an independent and sovereign country. Do not be afraid to fly the Jalur Gemilang, but always be aware of the proper guidelines and check them before displaying it,” he said in a Facebook post today.

Aaron said the National Unity Ministry, through the Kawasan Rukun Tetangga (KRT) and Rukun Negara Secretariat, would step up efforts to raise public awareness of the correct procedures for installing and displaying the Jalur Gemilang.

According to him, the approach was aimed not only at preventing similar mistakes from recurring, but also at fostering greater understanding and instilling a spirit of patriotism, especially among the younger generation.

Aaron said unintentional mistakes should be addressed through education and awareness, while deliberate acts of insulting or belittling the national emblem should be dealt with in accordance with the law.

He said the same principle should also apply to the use of the Jalur Gemilang on social media, including content generated by artificial intelligence (AI).

Aaron said the widespread use of AI technology could sometimes result in inaccurate images of the Jalur Gemilang, including mistakes in the number of stripes, colour arrangement or the flag’s position.

“Therefore, every user has a responsibility to check the accuracy of content before publishing or sharing it. Technology should help instil patriotism, not be an excuse for us to ignore the correct display of the national emblem,” he said.

Aaron said acts such as flying the Jalur Gemilang upside down were subject to the Emblems and Names (Prevention of Improper Use) Act 1963, under which offenders could face a fine of up to RM20,000 or imprisonment for up to three years, or both.

“Respect for the Jalur Gemilang is a shared responsibility. Let us uphold it as a symbol of unity and educate the next generation to love, respect and defend the dignity of the country,” he said. — Bernama

马来西亚人在展示国旗“辉煌条纹”（Jalur Gemilang）时应遵循正确的准则，以示对国家统一和主权的尊重。

国家团结部旨在教育公众正确的升旗程序，并向青年灌输爱国主义精神。

根据马来西亚法律，滥用马来西亚国旗（如倒挂国旗）可能导致罚款或监禁。

吉隆坡，9月5日讯——马来西亚民众被敦促在安装和展示国旗时更加谨慎，并始终参考正确的指导方针。

国家团结部长拿督亚伦·阿戈·达甘表示，辉煌条纹是国家主权、尊严和团结的象征，所有马来西亚人，无论种族、宗教或政治派别，都必须尊重它。

“国旗承载着我们作为一个独立主权国家的身份、历史和自豪感。不要害怕悬挂国旗，但务必了解并遵守相关规定，并在悬挂前仔细阅读，”他今天在脸书上发帖说道。

Aaron表示，国家团结部将通过Kawasan Rukun Tetangga (KRT)和Rukun Negara秘书处加大力度，提高公众对安装和展示Jalur Gemilang（辉煌条纹）的正确程序的认识。

据他所说，这种做法不仅是为了防止类似错误再次发生，也是为了增进彼此的了解，并培养爱国主义精神，尤其是在年轻一代中。

亚伦表示，对于无意的错误，应该通过教育和提高意识来解决；而对于故意侮辱或贬低国徽的行为，则应该依法处理。
