'DON'T IGNORE WHOLESOME VALUES'
"Buttress yourselves and shoulder your responsibility as citizens who genuinely love the country. Indeed, Malaysia is our right, symbol of our dignity and sovereignty. For this, we must shape and mould the future of our nation.  Material gains alone are not enough to make us a strong nation. We need to safeguard and continue to practise the values of a courteous society."  
KUALA LUMPUR: The people should be empowered and dynamic to ensure that the country achieved  developed nation status by 2020, said Yang di-Pertuan Agong Tuanku Abdul Halim Mu'adzam Shah.

He said they should also equip themselves with knowledge and skills besides adopting good conduct, high moral values and ethics.

Speaking at his installation as the 14th Yang di-Pertuan Agong at Istana Negara here yesterday, Tuanku Abdul Halim said the country would not be developed if the people were not knowledgeable while the progress would not be significant if positive values were ignored by the people.
