On 16 June 2018, the Embassy of Malaysia had its Hari Raya Aidilfitri celebration for all of the Embassy’s staff and families as well as friends of Malaysia.
In his Welcoming Remarks, Mr Nik Ady Arman, Chargé d’Affairés of the Embassy stated that the purpose of the event is to recreate the atmosphere of the Hari Raya celebration, particularly the practice of the ‘open house’, as well as to showcase a part of the Malaysian tradition and culture to the guests.
Through the concept of “gotong-royong” and in the spirit of togetherness on the auspicious occasion of Hari Raya, the Embassy’s staff had the opportunity to learn to prepare some of the popular Hari Raya dishes for the event. Facilitated by the ladies of PERWAKILAN Belgrade, these dishes included among others “satay”, “kuah kacang” (peanut sauce) and “rendang daging” (beef rendang).
The event was made even meaningful with the handing out of “duit raya” (small tokens of money) to the children, playing of fireworks and while being entertained throughout with Hari Raya songs and impromptu dances and performances.
As Hari Raya Aidilfitri is generally being celebrated throughout the month of Syawal (in accordance to the Islamic calendar), we wish everyone a Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri!

Proslava Hari raje 2018
Ambasada Malezije je organizovala proslavu Hari raje (Bajrama) za sve svoje zaposlene i clanove njihovih porodica, kao i za prijatelje Malezije.
U svom govoru dobrodoslice, otpravnik poslova ambasade je naglasio da je svha ovog dogadjaja da prenese atmosferu proslave Hari raje u Maleziji, a narocito obicaj “kuce otvorenih vrata”, kao i da prikaze gostima deo malezijske tradicije i kulture.
Kroz koncept koji je poznat pod nazivom “gotong-royong” (koji je slican organizaciji “mobe” u Srbiji) kao i duha zajednistva koji krasi bajramsku svecanost, zaposleni u Ambasadi su imali priliku da ucestvuju u pripremi popularnih malezijskih jela za proslavu Hari raje. Spremljeni od strane kluba zena ambasade (PERWAKILAN), specijaliteti na proslavi su, izmedju ostalih, ukljucivali i “sate” (marinirane pilece i junece raznjice), “kuah kecang” (sos od kikirikija) i “rendang daging” (malezijski juneci gulas).
Proslava je jos vise dobila na verodostojnosti urucivanjem “duit raje” (simbolicnih novcanih iznosa) deci i vatrometom, kao i malezijskom praznicnom muzikom i spontanim izvodjenjem tradicionalih plesova.
Kako se Hari raja tradicionalno proslavlja tokom citavog meseca sevala, zelimo svima srecan Bajram malezijskim pozdravom “Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri!”
