"I hope this year's Labour Day will provide a boost so that we can further enhance the recognition in terms of reward, respect and compassion to the workers," he said in a video shared on his Facebook page today.

Anwar, on behalf of the MADANI Government, also conveyed his deep appreciation and gratitude for workers' tireless efforts and unwavering dedication over the years.

Themed 'Pekerja Kesuma Bangsa', the national Labour Day celebration was held at the Putrajaya International Convention Centre (PICC) today.
