These couple of days, traffic was still not heavy because many who took advantage of the Hari Raya break were still on leave and have not gone back to work.
Our Muslim neighbours (Read here) for a second year running delivered some Hari Raya goodies to our house just a few days before Hari Raya Aidilfitri. This time, we reciprocated their kind gesture by also extending them a small gift. We discovered from conversation with the young lady of the house that they in fact employ two guards to guard their house 24/7. Indirectly, this has also benefitted houses along this lane. Since this family moved to our neighbourhood, we have not seen any kid roaming and scavenging the dust bins!

We also took advantage of the occasion of Hari Raya to visit my Muslim Uncle, Hj. Mantamin in Darau (Read here) whom I got to know in early 2013. He was ever ready to enhance family ties. In fact he was instrumental in the project to compile the Gomoron Family Tree. We could see that he was pleased that we had taken the trouble to visit him this Hari Raya. He immediately invited us to attend his brother's open house scheduled to be held on 3 August 2014. The open house was held in conjunction with the occasion of the engagement of a grand-daughter of his elder brother. In fact, according to Hj. Mantamin, the son of his deceased eldest brother really wanted to meet us and to introduce the rest of the clan to us.
