The initiative, launched by Japan’s ambassador to Malaysia Masahiko Horie, is a joint effort with nine iconic towers in raising awareness for the earthquake and tsunami victims by lighting up their towers in the same colours, i.e., red and it mast white - as seen in the image here. The lighting starts nightly from 8pm to midnight until May 4.
