Aidilfitri is upon us, and it can be sort of a psychological warfare for some. Apart from hosting guests and feasting, perhaps there'll be a few individuals who tend to cross the line when it comes to conservations.
For specialist Dr. Imelda Balchin, she knows it all too well. Hence, she's come up with a lengthy list of etiquettes that we should keep in mind during this festivity.
When it comes to overindulgence, Aidilfitri is laden with staple temptations such as ketupat, rendang and the plethora of kuih raya. Balchin stressed that we should mind our food intake for the sake of wellness, including limiting sugary drinks as this can cause implications later on.
Apart from that, she also adviced against asking insensitive questions regarding marital and family matters. As for the celebration itself, moderation is key as Aidilfitri is all about spreading love, instead of showing off.
All in all, the specialist's way of knocking some sense deserves A+ because such awareness shouldn't be taken lightly. After all, it costs nothing to be kind with one another.
