On 1st October 2008, Malaysians will celebrate one of the many important feasts in our calendar, that is Hari Raya or Eid'l Fitri. The feast is celebrated to mark the end of Ramadhan where Muslims all over the world would be fasting from sunrise to sunset. After a month of surpressing hunger and controlling all of our desires, the coming month of Syawal will be a celebration time!
By this time I am sure many Malaysians are already making their way in batches to their home towns, driving with families to all directions, north, south, east and west. I hope that all will reach their hometown safely and will be able to meet with their loved ones!
I would like to wish all Malaysians and Muslims all over the world Eid Mubarak! May God bless our lives and shower us His love and bounties! When we savour the colourful treats like lemang, ketupat and rendang on the dining table, please do remember the needy and the poor that might not be able to celebrate with loads of delicacies like us. Do eat in moderation! :)
To Malaysians, Selamat Hari Raya and Maaf Zahir Batin!
