Let's make this birthday one to remember.

78 years old (Born on December 14, 1946)

Happy Birthday, Tan Sri Abdul Khalid Ibrahim! You're an inspirational trailblazer—the man who dared to lead Selangor without carrying UMNO membership card in your wallet. What bravery to break tradition! No one else has ever navigated Malaysian politics quite like you—achieving history-making success after winning a groundbreaking seat in Parliament back in 2008.

We’ll forever remember how brilliantly you balanced budgets and efficiently tackled complex issues with calm yet firm conviction as Menteri Besar. May your birthday be filled with laughter (as big as the challenges you've handled) and plentiful celebrations (almost rivaling Selangor's growing economic successes). Cheers!
