As we draw closer to Malaysia’s 62nd Independence Day, there are many things to be thankful for vis-a-vis how far we have come as a nation. From supporting our homegrown brands to visiting KL’s most recognised monuments to watching Malaysian-made films, it’s hard not to find at least one way of showing our national pride.
For Penang-born heritage jeweller, Habib, this mutual patriotism is embodied by its specially-designed Merdeka collection. Unveiled recently at its 12-day jewellery exhibition in Suria KLCC, the collection comprises of long chain tassel necklaces made with various gemstones and diamonds.
“Independence is about realising the true meaning of ‘Merdeka’ where we are all able to live comfortably and appreciate our freedom in making daily choices realised by our forefathers,” Habib Group Managing Director, Dato’ Sri Meer Habib said at the event.
“The spirit of ‘Merdeka’ among Malaysians should continue to strengthen, as Tunku Abdul Rahman once said, ‘We are all Malaysians and this is the bond that unites us. Let us always remember that unity is our fundamental strength as people and as a nation’.”
To underscore the unity in the diversity of our cultures while highlighting the versatility of the jewellery pieces, the collection was modelled by Malaysian beauty queens and models of varying backgrounds. Among the prominent faces were Miss Universe Malaysia 2019 Shweta Sekhon and Miss Habib Nikita Menon, each flaunting Habib jewellery paired with traditional clothing.
