The 1Malaysia Square (Malay: Dataran 1Malaysia) is a town square in Klebang town in the Malaysian state of Malacca which feature a whale fin sculpture and formerly a 1Malaysia signage. The square was officiated by Prime Minister Najib Razak in February 2012.[1] In December 2016, more than 20,000 peoples visited 1Malaysia Square to celebrate 755 years of Malacca.[2] Following the defeat of the Najib-led Barisan Nasional political coalition in the 2018 Malaysian general election, the 1Malaysia signage was removed from the square. It will be rebranded as 'Klebang Walk' by November 2023.[3]
