SELAMAT HARI GURU.


Assalamualaikum. Hye guys.How are you doing? emmm... saya sihat alhamdulillah. Just currently ni ada pening-pening sikit sebab tak cukup tidur. huhu. Jangan tiru saya ok.

So, yesterday was Teacher's Day. A day celebrating all teachers for their kindness, teaching us to be a good person and of course to appreciate their hard-work, to honor the teachers for their special contribution in a particular field area or the community in general
Here, I would to share a bit about the history of Teacher's Day. After googling here and there, Wikipedia did give a simple yet easy information for us to understand.

Lets summarize it....

Actually, World Teacher's Day fall on 5 October. The idea of celebrating Teachers' Day took ground independently in many countries during the 20th century.Teacher's day has been celebrated annually all around the world, since UNESCO (The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) recognized the celebration.
UNESCO is a specialized United Nations agency. Its name stands for an ambitious goal: to build peace in the minds of human beings through education. 

However, almost all countries celebrate this day on different date, unlike many other International Days. As our country choose 16 May as Teacher Days because,it is on the same day in 1956, the Federal Legislative Council of the Federation of Malaya endorsed the Razak Report, one of four reports of the Education Committee regarding education in Malaysia. The document, known as the Razak Report after Tun Abdul Razak who was Education Minister at the time, has been the basis of education in Malaysia ever since. Although it is not an official school holiday, celebrations are usually held on May 16, or earlier, if it falls on a Saturday or Sunday. (wikipedia.org)

Date for celebrating Teacher's Day is choose based on their on history of education. There are all have different history to tell. So that's all I can share. Hope it enhance your knowledge.
To all teachers you're not only our teacher, you are our friend, philosopher and guide all molded into one person.
