What is identity?
Identity (jati diri) means knowing who we are. As Malaysians, our identity includes loving our country, respecting each other, and feeling proud of our nation. The anthem Negaraku helps build this identity.
How the anthem shapes us
- It fills us with love for our country.
- It brings people of all races together in unity.
- It makes us feel proud to be Malaysian.
- It reminds us to be loyal and to protect the nation.
Key idea
Singing Negaraku builds our identity as proud, united and loyal Malaysians.
When students sing the anthem together at assembly, they share the same feeling of belonging. This helps everyone grow up caring for their country and living peacefully with others. A strong sense of identity keeps the nation united and strong.
Remember
- Identity means knowing who we are.
- The anthem builds pride, unity and loyalty.
- It helps us belong to one nation.
