“During the times when we still recall the past, we look to the future with confidence and hope; from this moment we are the ones who will determine our destiny, and the welfare of this beloved homeland is our responsibility. No one should think we have reached the end of the road. Independence is indeed a success, but it is only the beginning of a larger effort to form a new and sovereign country. Now, I solemnly call on all citizens and together we shall devote our services to the new Malaya, to work and make every effort to mobilise our energy and thoughts to form a new nation, inspired by the principles of justice and freedom as the light that illuminates the world with full of chaos (disturbances) and disorder.” -Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra Al-Haj
