The ritual of visiting houses of friends, neighbors and relatives are customary to all Muslim in the world during the auspicious month of Syawal. Foods are always ready all the time for guests to savor.
On the first day of Hari Raya in my family’s house in Johor Bahru, Pak Budi from the Indonesian consulate came for a visit with his family. Not only that he is a close friend to my parents but he and his family is also regarded as our own relative. Pak Budi was served our own Laksa Johor and ketupat. It was a pleasure for my family to play host for Pak Budi and family in our house.
The visitation during the first day of Hari Raya proves that the ties between Indonesian and Malaysian are strong beyond citizenships.
PS: Pak Budi’s 2 daughters are as pretty as Indonesian actress.
