MIRI (Dec 7): The Miri City Christmas Parade 2025 drew over 40,000 of participants and spectators on Saturday night, reaffirming its role as one of the city’s strongest symbols of unity, harmony and shared community spirit.
Premier Datuk Patinggi Tan Sri Abang Johari Tun Openg, in his officiating speech, said the annual celebration has evolved far beyond a festive procession.
According to him, the celebration, which has become a proud tradition in Miri for the past 15 years, is not just a parade of lights, music and colours but a symbol of unity, peace and goodwill among the people of Miri, regardless of race, religion or background.
He added that the parade serves as a reminder that Sarawak’s greatest strength lies in its diversity and its people’s ability to celebrate one another’s culture and faith with mutual respect.
“It reminds us that Sarawak’s strength lies in our diversity — in our ability to come together and celebrate one another’s faith and culture with mutual respect,” he said.
His speech text was read by Deputy Premier Datuk Amar Douglas Uggah Embas, who represented him at the event.
