About Malaysia National Day (Merdeka)

Malaysia celebrates its National Day, Hari Kebangsaan or Hari Merdeka, on 31 August. It marks the independence of the Federation of Malaya on 31 August 1957.

On the night before, people count down to midnight and shout "Merdeka!" seven times, as was done in 1957. On the day there are parades, flag-raising and fireworks, and the Jalur Gemilang flag flies from homes, cars and buildings across the country.
