This is an attitude every Malaysian should adopt!
Let’s admit it, our country does not have the cleanest streets and sometimes, we rarely take any action to deal with this problem. Of course, we have been taught since we were young that we should throw away our waste orderly into the rubbish bin.
But, what about the rubbish that is left abandoned on the streets by someone else?
Well, this Malaysian family showed us exactly what we need to do in order to make our country a better place to live in and honestly, we love them for it.

“After a picnic, a family decided to pick up the trash surrounding the area. This is may be an example of good parenting!”
“We shouldn’t only keep our houses clean but we should also keep our environment clean. Let us all try to follow their good example and encourage this type of attitude in our children to build a better future.”

On that note, we hope that the family will continue teaching the right things to their kids! As for us, we should learn from them that keeping our environment clean is as vital as keeping our homes clean.
