9th November, 2008 - Remembrance Day or also known as “Poppy Day” is observed on the 11th hour of the 11th day of November each year in some Commonwealth countries. This event originates from the First World War (1914 - 1918) to commemorate the Allied Servicemen, who gave their lives during the war. Red Poppies are worn during that day, which denotes the Poppies of the Flanders in France. Commemorative ceremonies such as ANZAC Day and Remembrance Day share many customs and traditions. The central element of Remembrance Day ceremonies is the minute’s silence.

This year, Remembrance Day was held at Labuan War Memorial with attendance of VIPs and some family members of whom fought the Japanese during the World War II. In Borneo, Remembrance Day observed on Sunday 9th November 2008 at the Labuan World War II Memorial grounds. Let us remember those who gave their lives during the war on this day. Among those buried here also Malaysians.
