Happy Deepavali

Happy Deepavali to all Hindu readers of this blog.

According to my Indian friends, Deepavali is a day to commemorate the victory of Good over Evil and it is also known as the Festival of Lights.

As with other celebrations in Malaysia such as Hari Raya Aidilfitri, Chinese New Year and Christmas Day, Deepavali is a day of significance to us. On such a day, we will visit our friends of other religions to promote mutual understanding of their customs and religious practices. It is only we understanding that we can foster closer friendship with friends from different races in Malaysia.

Since the day I was a participant of a Students' Exchange Programme, I have come to realise the importance of knowing the customs and religious practices of other races in Malaysia. If all Malaysians harbour goodwill towards each other irrespective of race and religion, all of us will live side by side peacefully.

Once again, Happy Deepavali to all Hindus.
