Duit Raya Cheer Up Kids
By Yusrin Junaidi

Bandar Seri Begawan - One of the things which cheer up children most during the Hari Raya Aidilfitri celebration is the "duit raya". It is a tradition for the elders to give "duit raya" to their younger ones during the celebration.

During Raya visits or open houses, adults could be seen distributing duit raya amounting from $1 to $100 in a green envelope to children who visit their houses.

Besides the sumptuous food and drinks served, children love to collect the green packets during Raya visits.

A resident of Kg Manggis Satu, Pengiran Hjh Hadijah, and her daughter-in-law, Busera Abdullah, were busy on Hari Raya eve preparing the "duit raya" to be given away to children throughout the festive season. Dayang Busera addedd that they also prepared the "duit raya" for alms.  -- Courtesy of Borneo Bulletin
