WESAK 2026 message by Bro Tan Leng Huat

This Vesak Day, let us take a moment to be thankful for this life โ€“ a life in which we have the capacity to cultivate gratitude and kindness.

As we bow before the Buddha on this auspicious day commemorating the Birth, Enlightenment, and the Passing of our Great Teacher, may our hearts be filled with gratitude for His teachings of compassion, wisdom, peace, and goodwill. These timeless teachings have moved the hearts of millions across the world and through generations.

Host National Wesak Celebration Reflecting MADANI Vision of Unity

In a move that underscores the Malaysian governmentโ€™s commitment to religious diversity, the MADANI administration will organize a large-scale National Wesak Day Celebration in May 2026. The event, spearheaded by the Ministry of National Unity in collaboration with the Ministry of Transport and the Malaysian Buddhist Consultative Council (MBCC), aims to foster unity, harmony, and multi-religious tolerance. This celebration is more than a commemoration; it is a statement of national identity. Malaysia stands as the only Muslim-majority country in the world where Wesak (Vesak) is observed as a federal public holiday - a distinction won through the tireless efforts of the Buddhist community over six decades ago.
