KUALA LUMPUR, June 14 — A Malaysian grandpa had a brilliant idea to step up his “duit raya”-giving game a notch higher with very minimum effort.
Nur Hidayah Suhaimi, 17, recently took to Twitter her unique Hari Raya moment when her grandfather handed her “duit raya” in a plastic medicine envelope.
She posted a photo of her and her cousins’ “duit raya” and said this was the first time that she received her “duit raya” in a medicine envelope which her grandfather used for his heart medicines.
“This is the first time I received my duit raya like this. I wish you a healthy and long life grandpa and grandma,” she said in her post.
