On November 24, Soka Gakkai Malaysia (SGM) and the National Archives of Malaysia organized a forum where guest speakers shared their thoughts and insights on Rumi, the celebrated 13th-century Sufi poet, humanist and philosopher. The guest speakers at the forum were Dr. Chandra Muzaffar, President of the International Movement for a JUST World, and Dr. John Fozdar from the Malaysia Interfaith Network and Bahá’í community. The forum sought to establish a link between patriotism and universal values, and emphasized the need to bring together people of diverse ethnic and religious backgrounds on the basis of shared universal values.
