PUTRAJAYA, Jan 26 -- Projection mapping based on the ‘Keluarga Malaysia’ (Malaysian Family) concept will colour the ‘Putrajaya Steps’, here, every night from today until Jan 29 in conjunction with the Federal Territories Day celebration this year.
It is one of the events in the Federal Territory of Putrajaya Lighting Month programme launched by Federal Territories Minister Datuk Seri Dr Shahidan Kassim, today.
The projection mapping at the new Putrajaya landmark will be from 9 pm to 11 pm, read a statement by the Putrajaya Corporation (PPj) in conjunction with the launch of the programme.
It showcases Putrajaya's success from the time it was planned in 1995 till today.
Shahidan, when met by the media after the launch, said the Keluarga Malaysia concept was used to portray Malaysians’ spirit of togetherness.
"The concept of Keluarga Malaysia embodies the spirit of belonging, that this is our city, our home," he said.
In the meantime, he said that the ministry was planning to build another iconic structure like the Putrajaya Steps.
“We plan to have another one… maybe with 300 steps,” he said.
The Putrajaya Steps, which opened on Jan 5, has 250 steps leading up to a hill about 30 metres (m) high, with a climbing distance of 200m.
Meanwhile, PPj said landmarks in the Federal government's administrative centre will also be bathed in lights every night from today until Feb 28 in conjunction with the lighting month programme.
Yellow, blue and red lights, symbolising the colours of the Federal Territory flag, will light up the iconic Seri Wawasan and Seri Saujana bridges as well as the fountain at the Putrajaya lake.
PPj said all facades of government buildings and commercial buildings in Putrajaya will be aglow with 'Festive Mode' lighting, in line with the Putrajaya Lighting Master Plan.
The warm white lighting will highlight the architectural elements, textures and original colours of the materials on the iconic buildings with modern Islamic and Malay architecture such as the Perdana Putra building, Ministry of Federal Territories and PPj Complex in Putrajaya.
The Putrajaya Lighting Month is being held to enliven the celebration of the 2022 Federal Territories Day as well as cultivate a sense of love and affection among the people of the Federal Territories.
