The number of people attending Malay Language Month events doubled this year as members of the community chipped in by volunteering and organising activities.
About 21,600 people attended activities such as storytelling sessions, craft workshops and music performances last month, up from 10,800 a year ago.
Mr Zaqy Mohamad, chairman of the organising committee, said yesterday that many of the events "created buzz and interest".
"People used to think that it is a must to speak perfect Malay," he said. "The organisers want to change this mindset. Don't be afraid to use it everyday."
