IN the spirit of compassion and togetherness during the holy month of Ramadan, a total of 800 packets of freshly prepared bubur lambuk were distributed to the public yesterday (March 7).
The distribution took place at the Kompleks Bukit Jambul (KBJ) compound, near the clock tower area, attracting shoppers and visitors who gathered to receive the traditional porridge.
The programme is an annual initiative organised by the KBJ Joint Management Body (JMB), aimed at sharing blessings and fostering community spirit among those visiting the complex.
The event began at 4.30pm and featured a special cooking gimmick, where distinguished guests came together to prepare the bubur lambuk, symbolising unity and cooperation during the fasting month.
Among those present were Pantai Jerejak assemblyman Fahmi Zainol, KBJ JMB chairman Datuk KH Chan, Mydin northern executive director Azmin Datuk Dr Saduruddin and Adabi general manager Datuk Jaafar Abdul Ghani.
Fahmi expressed his delight at seeing the bubur lambuk distribution programme carried out in a lively and festive atmosphere.
“This programme serves as a platform for the community to come together, share their blessings and further enliven the spirit of Ramadan among the extended Pantai Jerejak family.
“I would like to thank everyone who attended and helped make this programme a success this afternoon.
“May the spirit of togetherness continue to be strengthened and bring blessings to us all,” he said.
