KLANG, JUL 1: A group of 28 orphans were invited to the Iftar Ceremony with Children of Rumah Bustanul Arifat by Kota Alam Shah Assemblyman V Ganabatirau recently.

Ganabatirau said the programme was organised for the children to celebrate the upcoming Raya festival in a more meaningful way.

“They were brought to a supermarket and were given the opportunity to choose the clothes that they like, be it the traditional baju melayu or baju kurung or contemporary and modern clothes.

“After that, we had breaking of fast together.  I am so glad to see these children happy,” he said to SelangorKini.

Clearly the difference in religion and race were not barriers in extending his contribution to those in need, especially orphans.

“I hope more assemblymen will do the same regardless of the colour of our skin as we live in a unique country.  One does not easily get the opportunity to witness and be part of this harmony in other countries where the people celebrate all festivals together.

“I wish all Muslims a blessed Aidilfitri and I hope it is more meaningful a celebration for everyone this year around,” he added.
