PUTRAJAYA: The 62nd National Day celebrations kicked off in grand fashion, with tens of thousands of Malaysians gathered around Persiaran Perdana here to witness the annual parade on Saturday (Aug 31).

An estimated 316,000 people gathered at Tamar Park in Hong Kong Saturday afternoon to show their support and gratitude to the city’s police force while making a strong appeal for peace and order that were broken repeatedly in recent protests.
