MIRI: The spirit of Ramadan was marked here on Thursday (March 12) as property developer, Imasa Dinasti Sdn Bhd, distributed hundreds of packs of traditional bubur lambuk to police officers and government agencies, in a gesture aimed at recognising the work of frontline public servants.
The distribution formed part of the company’s Cahaya Ramadan community outreach programme, an initiative designed to strengthen engagement between the private sector and public institutions while sharing the goodwill associated with the Muslim holy month.
At a brief handover ceremony at the Miri District Police Headquarters, Miri Police chief, ACP Mohd Farhan Lee Abdullah, received the bubur lambuk on behalf of officers from the Special Branch and the Traffic Investigation and Enforcement Department.
The packs of the traditional savoury porridge, commonly prepared and shared during Ramadan, were presented by Imasa Dinasti’s Project Manager, Aryton Kong, who was accompanied by members of the company’s public relations and marketing team.
