PAPAR: The community needs to make the Kaamatan Festival celebration as a platform to observe the diversity of backgrounds and ideologies.
Papar Member of Parliament Datuk Armizan Mohd Ali said the value and meaning of the annual celebration which was originally only celebrated by the Kadazandusun, Murut and Rungus tribes should be observed in a broader and realistic aspect.“The Kaamatan festival is a festival of KDMR tribes for a long time, but it brings two important things. Firstly, to respect the spirit of paddy. Paddy is a reflection of all kinds of food.
“This is because the Kaamatan Festival is a platform for community unity, a platform for us to see common ground among those who love unity. “We put aside any differences in background, ideology and so on because we all want unity, peace and development,” he said. “The Kampung Angkat Madani programme was the idea by the Prime Minister which was announced during the presentation of the 2024 Budget where the federal government decided that each ministry at the federal level will adopt one village.
