| Waiting for Hari Raya Rakyat |
| Dean Johns | Sep 30, 08 3:54pm |
Every day since the designated date of 16 September, I’ve been hoping against hope that Anwar Ibrahim’s long-promised Pakitan Rakyat power-play would finally happen in time for Hari Raya.
But apparently everything’s still on hold.
So, while sincerely wishing my Malaysian family, friends and all true Muslims everywhere a heartfelt Selamat Hari Raya Adilfitri, I have to confess that I’m feeling less festive than I’d been looking forward to.
I’m a long way from the festivities, too, way down here in Sydney instead of balik kampong at my parents-in-laws’ house in Ipoh.

My festive makan to stick in my throat |

The last hurrah for the rotten, |
