The Yemeni community in Malaysia on Saturday marked the 6th anniversary of the 11th February revolution in the Malaysian capital Kuala Lumpur.
At the celebration, which was organised by the Wa'i Initiative and the council of the revolutionary youth under the auspices of the Yemeni embassy in Malaysia, Yemeni ambassador Adil Bahumaid said the 11th February revolution was an extension of the immortal revolutions of the 26th September and 14th October and the peaceful southern struggle.
"It contributed to exposing the truth of the ousted president Saleh who ruled the country by force for decades and darkness ages that sought to take the country back to power inheritance, imamate, dynastic rule and subordination to the nation's enemies.
"The revolution has a special shining because the youth led it peacefully, positively, morally and in a civilised way gaining support from all Yemenis, the region and the world," he said.
"The February revolution laid the foundations for the national dialog conference which produced a document consensually agreed by all Yemenis and blessed by Gulf sponsors of the Gulf Initiative for power transfer, and which became a reference supported by UN resolutions," he said.
Despite heroic epics of the national army forces and popular resistance, the constitutional legitimacy has never closed the door to peace and that it is to spare bloodshed, preserve Yemen's unity and its people's safety and to protect remaining state institutions, he added.
Representative of the council Faisal Ali delivered a speech in which he said the Yemeni people took to the streets six years ago to reject the authoritarian regime that represented a direct threat to the Yemeni republic, and searching for a state based on national identity, equal citizenship and respected rights and freedoms.
"Without the revolution, that regime would destroy the republic completely, and the feudal state would continue to be run by a group of thieves," Ali said, pointing to tens of international reports and studies that were describing Yemen as a failed and dangerous state or on the brink of total collapse.
"When we celebrate the February revolution, we celebrate a great victory for our struggle throughout history, ousting the rule of the gang who were an exclusive representative of the dynasty. This war will not continue forever. It will end. And the rule of the gang and the dynasty will never come back," he said.
Yemen is passing through the worst turning point in its history after the putschists backed by Iranian mullahs seized power and as they are trying to obliterate the national identity and change the country into an Iranian base threatening Yemen's neighbours, he said, affirming that the Yemeni people will not allow that to happen.
