1MALAYSIA CYCLING EXPEDITION REFLECTS THE YOUNG GENERATION'S SPIRIT: M'SIAN PM



PUTRAJAYA, June 2 (Bernama) -- The 1Malaysia Cycling Expedition reflects the
spirit of the young generation who are determined, strong and willing to face
any challenge, said Prime Minister Najib Razak.

Expressing his pride, Najib said such a spirit should be nurtured among the
young generation of today if they wished to see the realisation of the country's
aspiration to become a developed nation.

"This is because such attitude and cultural value system would determine the
success and a better future for the country. So, I believe that the cycling
expedition today demonstrates the aspiration of the young generation to develop
the spirit as part of their life.

"This is because if the present generation is weak and lacks the right
spirit and are trapped into various social problems such as drug addiction, then
the country's future will be destroyed," he said when celebrating the
achievement of the participants of the 1Malaysia cycling expedition participated
by 110 students.

The 342km cycling expedition started from the Prime Minister's house in
Pekan, Pahang state on Monday and was participated by students from the Tengku
Abdullah Pekan Secondary School, and University Malaysia Pahang. The expedition
arrived at the grounds of the Perdana Putra Building at about 9am Thursday.
