Dear Miyako,
How are you? My family and I are fine here. I hope you and your family are fine too.
How is the weather in Japan? Is it cold and snowy? It is warm and sunny here in
Malaysia.
In two weeks' time we will be celebrating Hari Raya Puasa which is a festival celebrated
by Muslims after one month of fasting. My siblings and I help our parents with the
preparations. I help my mother to bake cakes and cookies. My sister helps to clean the
house. My two brothers help to paint the house. My mother also sews new curtains and
my father helps to put them up. My grandmother makes the ketupat. Ketupat is rice
cooked in a jacket made from young coconut leaves. We eat it with beef rendang, a
spicy traditional Malay dish. It is really delicious.
On Hari Raya day, we wear beautiful new clothes. In the morning, we will go to the
mosque for Eid prayer. Then we have breakfast at home. Later we visit friends and
family. Usually, children will be given token of money known as duit raya from our
parents and elders. We have a good time. I am looking forward to our visit to my
grandparents' village.
Well. I have to sign off now. I hope one day you will be here to celebrate Hari Raya
Puasa with me and my family. Do tell me about the festivals you celebrate in Japan.
Hope to hear from you soon. Bye.
Your pal,
Irfan
