The Way People Live Together And Share Of The World’s Resources

In my hometown, the state of Terengganu, a lot of programmes have been run by the government under the latest chief minister, Dato’ Seri Idris Bin Jusoh for the purpose of increasing the collaboration among nations with different community background. Well, the most common one is ‘gotong-royong’ which is well-organised to the national, state, district even to the village level. In my village, Kampung Atas Tol, in the district of Kuala Terengganu, the celebration is quite warm that the youngers and the oldest generations are actively involved in such tough activity. To my village, there would be a ‘gotong-royong’in a month time which is usually being held on Friday morning in a fortnight. All people, making their steps from their house will have their works together, cleaning the graveyard, roadside area and mosque compound. Meanwhile, the women prepare plenty of food to be served to working men. Food like ‘kuih lapis’, ‘karipap’, and ‘akak’ are the most famous food in my state, served whenever it is going to be a grand ceremony.
When it comes to Friday noon, all male muslims will have their prayers at the mosque as it is a priority as a muslim towards his God. They will gather and listen to a sermon just before they pray. What I would like to share with you is that besides running their priority to God, they have made a lot of donations in the form of cash that seems to have a hectic effect for the purpose of our village and community development somewhere. With the large amount of the money, we may definitely reduce poverty problems faced by lots of people especially people in deep regions as well as it has become one of the contents in Ninth Malaysia Plan.
