March 8th Anniversary: Anwar’s “State of the Union” speech live online, 4.30

A quick plug for an event happening tomorrow on the anniversary of March 8th (see below).

I don’t think I will be writing anything specific for tomorrow, maybe a bit later.

Anwar’s theme will be on Ketuanan Rakyat, a concept which I was surprised to find is still attacked out there.

Anyhow, the details:

PIDATO KEBANGSAAN 2009
YB Dato Seri Anwar Ibrahim | “Ketuanan Rakyat” | MBSA Auditorium, Shah Alam
Watch live at 4:30 PM (GMT +8), Sunday March 8, 2009

On March 8th 2009 Dato Seri Anwar Ibrahim will deliver a National Address on the one year anniversary of the 12th General Elections in which the Pakatan Rakyat achieved unprecedented gains.

His speech will call for unity among the Malaysian people and declare a firm resolve on the part of the Pakatan Rakyat to work hard to face the challenges of the economic recession, create new jobs for Malaysians and improve access to quality education. He will also highlight the many successes achieved by Pakatan Rakyat governments in the five states to reduce corruption, increase investment and create jobs during a period when thousands of Malaysians have been left unemployed.

The speech, which will take place at the Majlis Bandaraya Shah Alam Auditorium, will be broadcast live on AntaraTV. It is the first National Address since the March 2008 elections.
