Recently, Segambut MP Hannah Yeoh visited the Al-Imam Al-Ghazali Mosque in Bandar Menjalara, in conjunction with their Open Day where they held various activities for the general public of all races.
They had JPJ open a counter for the people to pay their summons and renew their documents, a blood donation drive and even a counter for mental illness consultations with a psychiatrist, all for everyone in the community.
But what people could not stop endorsing was Yeoh’s outfit, presence and the good energy she brought with her.
She shared on her Facebook page, “I attended the Open Day at the Al-Iman Al-Ghazali Mosque in Bandar Menjalara, Segambut. I was glad to see people of various races visiting the mosque.”
Yeoh’s pastel purple Baju Kurung and matching selendang (headscarf) won the hearts of many as they took to the comments to praise her choice of clothing.
“YB looks pretty and sweet in the Baju Kurung and headscraf.”
People also loved how she carried herself throughout the visit.
“YB Hannah is the best. She’s smart at adapting and interacting with the people.”
But, most importantly, her visit reminded Malaysians that we live in a racially-diverse community and we should respect and cherish the beauty of that.
Yeoh even shared an adorable bonus clip where an elderly uncle did not recognise her under the headscarf.
While speaking to the elderly Chinese uncle, she found out that he came to the mosque’s Open Day because he heard of it from “Hannah Yeoh”.
“I am Hannah Yeoh”, she said.
“You are YB?” the uncle adorably asked.
“Yes, yes, I am covered up so cannot recognise me”, Yeoh laughed with the uncle.
Undeniably, Yeoh has shown us all just how easy it is for us to live harmoniously as a multiracial community.
Thank you, YB, for this very necessary reminder! We heart you!
