31 August is Hari Merdeka, the founding of the modern state of Malaysia. I was in KL on 30 August when celebrations into the night welcome in Hari Merdeka.
Kinda like New Year’s Eve parties to welcome in the New Year. People in Malaysia are very patriotic by showing their colors all over the place. Sometimes on buses. Definitely on the streets. Nicely on their persons (complete with bad pun). And sometimes patriotism just spurts out of their cars.

Saw this car at lunch in Klang, on the Road to Singapore.
