Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim delivered a special address on the country's new slogan “Malaysia Madani” today.
The new tagline came as part of the theme of the prime minister's Budget 2023 dialogue yesterday titled "Developing Malaysia Madani".
The Dewan Bahasa dan Pustaka defines madani as being “developed in terms of thinking, spirituality and materiality”.
It also refers to efforts to shape society by instilling good family values.
Anwar is said to have begun his interest and spoken about the concept of madani (civil) as early as in the 1970s when he was still studying at Universiti Malaya.
