Malaysia, July 24,2019- Ramadhan; it’s time of the year where one would take a minute to reflect on oneself and to give back to the community. This year, our spiritual journey took a different path with a collaborative effort between RTM, Cosway and Berjaya Times Square Hotel, Kuala Lumpur. It was a special Hari Raya moment this year as we celebrated Buka Puasa with the 100 Muaalaf, orphans/ children from Spastic children Association of Selangor n Federal Territory, Hidayah Centre Foundation and the pre-school student from Sekolah Kebangsaan Pandan Indah at Berjaya Times Square Hotel, Kuala Lumpur.

The main highlight of this event was not just merely to give entertainment for the less fortunate, but also to contribute back to the community in general. It was truly a memorable event as this was the first time Berjaya Times Square Hotel, Kuala Lumpur, RTM and Cosway worked together for a good cause in celebrating a memorable Hari Raya.
The event started off with a heart-warming speech by the representatives from Cosway, Berjaya Times Square Hotel, Kuala Lumpur and RTM followed by the distribution of Hari Raya Goodies to the invited special homes.
Guests were then treated to a sumptuous berbuka puasa spread composing of traditional Hari Raya delicacies such as Rendang Ayam, Daging, Satay and Ulam-Ulam Melayu, Udang Sambal Petai Daging Masak Hitam, Ayam Salai Masak Lemak, Stir Fried Vegetable Chinese Style Grilled Seabass with Teriyaki Sauce all deliciously prepared by award-winning Sous Chef- Malay Cuisine, Chef Yusoff bin Abdul Hamid; and his team; followed by the performance from local celebrities for Jelajah Ramadhan 2019 showcase. Just to name a few; among the celebrities are Shamel, Ernie Zakri, Sufian Suhaimi, Syafiq Farhain, Inteam, Muna Shahirah and Nationalfm personality, Odey Petra.
Apart from the distributing of Hari Raya gifts, Duit Raya and “Majlis Berbuka Puasa”, the event was also a part of the recording for "Sesuci Lebaran" radio program that was broadcasted on NASIONALfm on the day of Hari Raya 2019 which was available via tuning to 95.3MHz & 88.5MHz in Klang Valley, ASTRO 869, Mytv 701, live stream via MyKlik and RTM Mobile applications.
