Malaysia: Christians Unashamedly Celebrate Christmas in Sarawak

Source: International Christian Concern, December 20, 2023

In mid-December, more than 10,000 Christians in Sibu, Sarawak Region celebrated Christmas with a parade organized by the Association of Churches in Sarawak. This follows another significant Christmas caroling event in early December, where nearly 2,500 Kuching Christians and carolers gathered to sing songs, worship God, and celebrate the birth of Christ.

ICC welcomes these peaceful events in Malaysia, a nation where Christians and churches have, over many years, been attacked and persecuted. Christmas can often be a risky time for many Christians around the world.
