Perayaan tersebut juga dikenali sebagai Hari Raya Puasa\, Hari Raya Fitrah atau Hari Lebaran. Hari Raya Aidilfitri merupakan perayaan yang disambut oleh umat Islam di seluruh dunia tidak kira bangsa sama ada Arab\, Inggeris\, Melayu\, India-Muslim\, Cina-Muslim dan lain-lain bangsa di seluruh dunia yang beragama Islam bagi menandakan berakhirnya bulan Ramadhan yang mana umat Islam telah menjalani ibadat puasa dengan tekun. Ia merupakan antara dua perayaan terbesar bagi umat Islam\, selain Hari Raya Kurban. \nHari Raya Puasa bermula melalui dua cara; iaitu melalui rukyah (melihat anak bulan) ataupun secara hisab (kiraan). Sekiranya melalui rukyah\, apabila anak bulan kelihatan\, ini menandakan bermulanya bulan Syawal\, iaitu bulan ke-10 dalam Takwim Hijrah Islam. Di Malaysia\, anak bulan akan diperhatikan oleh pegawai bertugas pada sebelah petang hingga waktu maghrib di beberapa tempat strategik. \nSource by Wikipedia \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Simbol terkenal bagi perayaan Hari Raya di Malaysia ialah ketupat. Ketupat adalah juadah istimewa yang masih dihidangkan pada hari ini. Ketupat adalah nasi yang dikukus di dalam anyaman daun kelapa atau daun palas dan selalunya dihidangkan bersama dengan rendang. Juadah-juadah yang lain termasuklah lemang\, lontong\, dodol\, dan kuih raya. \nNamun begitu\, simbol lain yang berteraskan Islam seperti kalimah Allah dan Nabi Muhammad\, bunga-bungaan\, tumbuh-tumbuhan\, geometri\, dan lain-lain yang tiada unsur haram juga adalah digalakkan untuk digunakan sebagai simbol perayaan Hari Raya Aidilfitri. \nSource by Wikipedia URL:https://hello.tourplus.my/event/hari-raya-aidilfitri/ CATEGORIES:Festival,Malaysia ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://hello.tourplus.my/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/pexels-ammar-asyraf-4472473.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20210501 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20210502 DTSTAMP:20210115T063413Z CREATED:20210113T054957Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210115T063413Z UID:4331-1619827200-1619913599@hello.tourplus.my SUMMARY:Labour Day DESCRIPTION:Labour Day (Labor Day in the United States) is an annual holiday to celebrate the achievements of workers. Labour Day has its origins in the labour union movement\, specifically the eight-hour day movement\, which advocated eight hours for work\, eight hours for recreation\, and eight hours for rest. \nFor most countries\, Labour Day is synonymous with\, or linked with\, International Workers’ Day\, which occurs on 1 May. For other countries\, Labour Day is celebrated on a different date\, often one with special significance for the labour movement in that country. Labour Day is a public holiday in many countries. \nSource by Wikipedia URL:https://hello.tourplus.my/event/labour-day/ CATEGORIES:Festival,Malaysia ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://hello.tourplus.my/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/horizontal-3353940_1920.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20210415 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20210416 DTSTAMP:20210201T111904Z CREATED:20210116T095307Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210201T111904Z UID:4966-1618444800-1618531199@hello.tourplus.my SUMMARY:Melaka Historical City Day DESCRIPTION:Malacca is a hotchpotch of Malay\, Chinese\, Indian\, European and sundry influences. Malaysians laud Malacca’s laidback atmosphere and lost-in-time feel; stores close early here\, traffic goes by at leisurely pace and city life is a languid affair. Between the scattered historic spots are atmospheric Chinese shop fronts and traditional Malay kampongs. Though the state may not boast a white-sand shoreline reminiscent of its East Coast cousins\, Malacca is noteworthy for its heritage hotspots. \n  \nWhen the sun goes down\, one of the city’s most popular destinations is the Friday and Saturday Jonker Walk Night Market which plays host to a collection of stalls that sell everything but the kitchen sink. Here you can purchase a variety of trinkets and even sample some of the state’s best-known local fare including fried egg ice cream and fried radish cake. At night the handful of bars along the boulevard become a mini street party with tables oozing beyond the sidewalks and a mix of live music beating throughout the area. \nSource by Hotel.com \nLocation :  Gereja Christ\, Jalan Gereja\, Bandar Hilir\, 75000 Malacca URL:https://hello.tourplus.my/event/melaka-historical-city-day/ CATEGORIES:Malacca,Malaysia ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://hello.tourplus.my/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/dutch-square-957004_1920.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20210414 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20210415 DTSTAMP:20210323T043736Z CREATED:20210118T094915Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210323T043736Z UID:5640-1618358400-1618444799@hello.tourplus.my SUMMARY:Qingming Festival DESCRIPTION:The Qingming festival\, also known as Tomb-Sweeping Day in English (sometimes also called Chinese Memorial Day or Ancestors’ Day)\,[2][3] is a traditional Chinese festival observed by the Han Chinese of mainland China\, Taiwan\, Hong Kong\, Macau\, Malaysia\, Singapore\, Indonesia\, Thailand and by the Chitty of Malaysia and Singapore. It falls on the first day of the fifth solar term of the traditional Chinese lunisolar calendar. This makes it the 15th day after the Spring Equinox\, either 4\, 5 or 6 April in a given year.[4][5][6] During Qingming\, Chinese families visit the tombs of their ancestors to clean the gravesites\, pray to their ancestors and make ritual offerings. Offerings would typically include traditional food dishes and the burning of joss sticks and joss paper. The holiday recognizes the traditional reverence of one’s ancestors in Chinese culture. \nThe Qingming Festival has been observed by the Chinese for over 2500 years. It became a public holiday in mainland China in 2008. In Taiwan\, the public holiday was in the past observed on 5 April to honor the death of Chiang Kai-shek on that day in 1975\, but with Chiang’s popularity waning\, this convention is not being observed. A similar holiday is observed in the Ryukyu Islands\, called Shīmī in the local language. \nIn mainland China\, the holiday is associated with the consumption of qingtuan\, green dumplings made of glutinous rice and Chinese mugwort or barley grass. A similar confection called caozaiguo or shuchuguo\, made with Jersey cudweed\, is consumed in Taiwan. \nSource by Wikipedia URL:https://hello.tourplus.my/event/qingming-festival/ CATEGORIES:Festival,Malaysia ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://hello.tourplus.my/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Qingm.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20210413 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20210513 DTSTAMP:20210201T111947Z CREATED:20210116T073620Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210201T111947Z UID:4854-1618272000-1620863999@hello.tourplus.my SUMMARY:Ramadan Bazaar DESCRIPTION:For a whole month\, those observing fasting during Ramadan abstain from food or drink during the day till dusk. To punctuate their breaking fast\, Ramadan bazaars in various areas in Penang pop-up from around 4.30pm till around 7.30pm and they offer a large array of desserts\, savoury food and non-alcoholic drinks for take away. They are basically a one-stop place for anyone interested to sample Penang’s halal street food. The larger bazaars with the most varieties are the ones at Seberang Perai on Penang’s mainland. \nThe array of dishes available at these bazaars for take-away may make your head spin. While it’s always fun to try a little bit of everything\, moderation is key during Ramadhan. To keep greed at bay\, here are a few recommendations of authentic local dishes to make food shopping at these bazaars a pleasurable (and quick) chore. \nSource by myPenang URL:https://hello.tourplus.my/event/ramadan-bazaar/ CATEGORIES:Malaysia ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://hello.tourplus.my/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/amandine-cornillon-IXyobOZmmOs-unsplash.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20210413 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20210414 DTSTAMP:20210201T112813Z CREATED:20210116T072715Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210201T112813Z UID:4845-1618272000-1618358399@hello.tourplus.my SUMMARY:Penang's Thai New Year Songkran Water Festival DESCRIPTION:Songkran\, also known as the Thai Water Festival\, is a traditional Thai Festival to mark the New Year. Is also celebrated in Penang\, notably along Lorong Burma in Pulau Tikus\, where both the Thai Reclining Buddha temple and the Burmese Temple celebrate with gusto. The now almost-destroyed historic hamlet of Kampong Siam (Thai Village) is nearby; this was once the heart of the Thai and Burmese  communities of Penang.  Both temples are worth visiting at any time\, the Thai one for its long reclining Buddha\, and the Burmese one for its intricate gilding and lattice work. Normally oases of calm lying between two busy roads\, Songkran brings an entirely different atmosphere\, one of noise\, gaiety and playfulness. \nSource By Penang Free Street \nLocation :  24\, Jalan Burma\, Pulau Tikus\, 10250 George Town\, Pulau Pinang URL:https://hello.tourplus.my/event/thai-water-festival-songkran/ CATEGORIES:Festival,Malaysia,Penang ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://hello.tourplus.my/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/lishui-989526_1920.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20210412 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20210512 DTSTAMP:20210201T112926Z CREATED:20210116T061258Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210201T112926Z UID:4788-1618185600-1620777599@hello.tourplus.my SUMMARY:Ramadan DESCRIPTION:Ramadan (Arabic: رَمَضَان‎\, romanized: Ramaḍān [ra.ma.dˤaːn])\,[a] also spelled Ramazan\, Ramzan\, Ramadhan or Ramathan\, is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar\,[10] observed by Muslims worldwide as a month of fasting (sawm)\, prayer\, reflection and community.[11] A commemoration of Muhammad’s first revelation\,[12] the annual observance of Ramadan is regarded as one of the Five Pillars of Islam[13] and lasts twenty-nine to thirty days\, from one sighting of the crescent moon to the next.[14][15] \nFasting from sunrise to sunset is fard (obligatory) for all adult Muslims who are not acutely or chronically ill\, travelling\, elderly\, breastfeeding\, diabetic\, or menstruating.[16] The predawn meal is referred to as suhur\, and the nightly feast that breaks the fast is called iftar.[17][18] Although fatwas have been issued declaring that Muslims who live in regions with a midnight sun or polar night should follow the timetable of Mecca\,[19] it is common practice to follow the timetable of the closest country in which night can be distinguished from day.[20][21][22] \nThe spiritual rewards (thawab) of fasting are believed to be multiplied during Ramadan.[23] Accordingly\, Muslims refrain not only from food and drink\, but also tobacco products\, sexual relations\, and sinful behavior\,[24][25] devoting themselves instead to salat (prayer) and recitation of the Quran.[26][27] \nSource by Wikipedia URL:https://hello.tourplus.my/event/ramadan/ CATEGORIES:Malaysia ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://hello.tourplus.my/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/rai-uriarte-P10U4Riwfto-unsplash.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20210402 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20210403 DTSTAMP:20210202T091047Z CREATED:20210116T085846Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210202T091047Z UID:4922-1617321600-1617407999@hello.tourplus.my SUMMARY:Good Friday DESCRIPTION:Good Friday is a Christian holiday commemorating the crucifixion of Jesus and his death at Calvary. It is observed during Holy Week as part of the Paschal Triduum on the Friday preceding Easter Sunday\, and may coincide with the Jewish observance of Passover. It is also known as Holy Friday\, Great Friday\, and Black Friday.[2][3][4] \nMembers of many Christian denominations\, including the Catholic\, Eastern Orthodox\, Lutheran\, Anglican\, Methodist\, Oriental Orthodox and Reformed traditions\, observe Good Friday with fasting and church services.[5][6][7] Communicants of the Moravian Church have a Good Friday tradition of cleaning gravestones in Moravian cemeteries.[8] \nThe date of Good Friday varies from one year to the next on both the Gregorian and Julian calendars. Eastern and Western Christianity disagree over the computation of the date of Easter and therefore of Good Friday. Good Friday is a widely instituted legal holiday around the world\, including in most Western countries and 12 U.S. states.[9] Some countries\, such as Germany\, have laws prohibiting certain acts\, such as dancing and horse racing\, that are seen as profaning the solemn nature of the day.[10][11] \nSource by Wikipedia \nLocation : Kuching\, Sarawak URL:https://hello.tourplus.my/event/good-friday/ CATEGORIES:Kuching,Malaysia,Sarawak ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://hello.tourplus.my/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/sincerely-media-fLV5wLn6vvw-unsplash.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20210401 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20210405 DTSTAMP:20210201T114105Z CREATED:20210122T073945Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210201T114105Z UID:5716-1617235200-1617580799@hello.tourplus.my SUMMARY:SABAH FEST 2021 DESCRIPTION:As a prelude to the statewide Harvest Festival celebration\, Sabah Fest brings a cultural extravaganza by different ethnic groups in Sabah that incorporates languages\, traditions\, arts\, crafts and more!

It originated as a Western Christian feast day honoring one or two early Christian martyrs named Saint Valentine and is recognized as a significant cultural\, religious\, and commercial celebration of romance and love in many regions of the world. \nThere are a number of martyrdom stories associated with various Valentines connected to February 14\,[2] including an account of the imprisonment of Saint Valentine of Rome for ministering to Christians persecuted under the Roman Empire in the third century.[3][4] According to an early tradition\, Saint Valentine restored sight to the blind daughter of his jailer.[5] Numerous later additions to the legend have better related it to the theme of love: an 18th-century embellishment to the legend claims he wrote the jailer’s daughter a letter signed “Your Valentine” as a farewell before his execution;[6] another addition posits that Saint Valentine performed weddings for Christian soldiers who were forbidden to marry.[4] \nThe Feast of Saint Valentine was established by Pope Gelasius I in AD 496 to be celebrated on February 14 in honour of Saint Valentine of Rome\, who died on that date in AD 269.[7][8] The day became associated with romantic love in the 14th and 15th centuries when notions of courtly love flourished\, apparently by association with the “lovebirds” of early spring. In 18th-century England\, it grew into an occasion in which couples expressed their love for each other by presenting flowers\, offering confectionery\, and sending greeting cards (known as “valentines”). Valentine’s Day symbols that are used today include the heart-shaped outline\, doves\, and the figure of the winged Cupid. Since the 19th century\, handwritten valentines have given way to mass-produced greeting cards.[9] In Italy\, Saint Valentine’s Keys are given to lovers “as a romantic symbol and an invitation to unlock the giver’s heart”\, as well as to children to ward off epilepsy (called Saint Valentine’s Malady).[10] \nSaint Valentine’s Day is not a public holiday in any country\, although it is an official feast day in the Anglican Communion[11] and the Lutheran Church.[12] Many parts of the Eastern Orthodox Church also celebrate Saint Valentine’s Day on July 6 in honor of Roman presbyter Saint Valentine\, and on July 30 in honor of Hieromartyr Valentine\, the Bishop of Interamna (modern Terni).[13] \nSource by Wikipedia URL:https://hello.tourplus.my/event/valentines-day/ CATEGORIES:Malaysia ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://hello.tourplus.my/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/freestocks-Qx5QNarbrUM-unsplash.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20210212 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20210221 DTSTAMP:20210201T151916Z CREATED:20210116T065654Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210201T151916Z UID:4819-1613088000-1613865599@hello.tourplus.my SUMMARY:Penang CNY Celebration (Miaohui) DESCRIPTION:The Penang Temple Fair is supported by the Penang State Government\, organized by the Joint Committee of the Ancestral Halls of Penang State\, and planned and coordinated by “Heirer”.

The festival is also observed among Keralites and is vernacularly called Thaipooyam (Malayalam: തൈപ്പൂയം).[1] It is mainly observed in countries where there is a significant presence of Tamil community such as India\, Sri Lanka\, Malaysia\,[2] Mauritius\,[3] Singapore\,[4] South Africa\, Canada and other places where ethnic Tamils reside as a part of the local Indian diaspora population such as Réunion\, Indonesia\, Thailand\, Myanmar\, Trinidad and Tobago\, Guyana\, Suriname\, Jamaica and the other parts of the Caribbean. \nIt is a national holiday in many countries like Malaysia\, Sri Lanka\, Mauritius. In certain states of Malaysia and in the nations of Sri Lanka and Mauritius it is a government and a bank holiday.[citation needed] In Singapore \, it was previously a national holiday but was removed from the official list of national holidays to improve business competitiveness.[5] \nThe word Thaipusam is a combination of the name of the month\, Thai\, and the name of a star\, Pusam (Tamil word for Pushya). This particular star is at its highest point during the festival. The festival commemorates the occasion when Parvati gave Murugan (aka Kartikeya) a Vel “spear” so he could vanquish the evil demon Soorapadman and his brothers. It is also commonly believed that Thaipusam marks Murugan’s birthday; Some other sources suggest that Vaikhasi Vishakam\, which falls in the Vaikhasi month (May/June)\, is Murugan’s birthday.[6] \nSource from Wikipedia URL:https://hello.tourplus.my/event/thaipusam/ CATEGORIES:Festival,Malaysia ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://hello.tourplus.my/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/statue-2720461_1920.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20210118 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20210119 DTSTAMP:20210202T022838Z CREATED:20201001T083545Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210202T022838Z UID:5570-1610928000-1611014399@hello.tourplus.my SUMMARY:Ironman Malaysia Langkawi DESCRIPTION:The Ironman Langkawi Malaysia is an annual triathlon that usually takes place in November. It is a gruelling race that starts out with a 2.4-mile swim\, followed by a 112-mile bicycle ride and a 26.2-mile marathon run. This triathlon is one of the world’s most recognized endurance events. \nIt began as a challenge for a group of American Navy Seals and was originally a combination of the Waikiki Rough Water swim\, the Around Oahu Bike Race and the Honolulu Marathon. Each year there are a series of 28 events all over the world that qualify athletes for the Ford Ironman World Championship held every October in Kona\, Hawaii. \nIronman Langkawi Malaysia\nThough the World Triathlon Corporation (WTC)\, owners and operators of the Ironman\, did not host any Malaysian races in 2011\, this year it is expected that new partners and venues will result in an even more exciting event. Last year was the first time in 11 years that the world-famous event did not take place in Langkawi\, although the WTC is optimistic that this year will see its return to Langkawi’s shores. \nThe Langkawi leg of the event is tough\, not because of the course but the humid weather with temperatures reaching up to 43°C (or 110°C). The race starts out at Eagle Square (Dataran Lang) with a two-loop swim in Kuah Bay. Once out of the water\, participants run up a short jetty to grab bikes and head to the other side of the island before heading back. Lastly\, it is a four-loop run that ends back at the Eagle Square. \nSource By Langkawi \nLocation START: Jalan Teluk Yu\, Kampung Kok\, 07000 Langkawi\, Kedah ( IRONMAN Malaysia – Swim Start ) \nLocation END : 2\, Jalan Pantai Chenang\, 07000 Langkawi\, Kedah URL:https://hello.tourplus.my/event/ironman-malaysia-langkawi/ CATEGORIES:Kedah,Langkawi,Malaysia ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://hello.tourplus.my/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/iron-man-3-2340188_1920.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20201231 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20210104 DTSTAMP:20210202T024003Z CREATED:20210118T092137Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210202T024003Z UID:5628-1609372800-1609718399@hello.tourplus.my SUMMARY:Light and Motion Putrajaya (LAMPU) DESCRIPTION:LAMPU Putrajaya\, or Light and Motion Putrajaya (LAMPU) Festival has become a regular year-end event for the past seven years and a highlight of Putrajaya’s events calendar. \nThe main attraction here is the spectacular projection mapping show which\, using state-of-the-art technology\, brings the entire facade of the imposing Palace of Justice building to life with an exciting and colourful light imagery and sounds. \nSource by LAMPU Putrajaya \nLocation : Kompleks Perbadanan Putrajaya\, 24\, Persiaran Perdana\, Presint 3\, 62675 Putrajaya\, Malaysia  URL:https://hello.tourplus.my/event/light-and-motion-putrajaya-lampu/ CATEGORIES:Malaysia,Putrajaya ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://hello.tourplus.my/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/masjid-sultan-mizan-4564997_1920.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20201230 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20210101 DTSTAMP:20210202T024535Z CREATED:20210116T181358Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210202T024535Z UID:5056-1609286400-1609459199@hello.tourplus.my SUMMARY:Melaka Countdown Fiesta DESCRIPTION:Come to the town’s most celebrated carnival where you can enjoy and have lots of fun\, with fireworks displays and music all night long as we countdown to the New Year 2021. \nSource by COE \nLocation : Bandar Hilir\, Melaka\, Malacca\, Malaysia URL:https://hello.tourplus.my/event/melaka-countdown-fiesta/ CATEGORIES:Festival,Malacca,Malaysia ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://hello.tourplus.my/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/blake-mccleary-x9thQms7d5w-unsplash.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20201218 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20201219 DTSTAMP:20210202T025846Z CREATED:20210118T090858Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210202T025846Z UID:5617-1608249600-1608335999@hello.tourplus.my SUMMARY:Sultan Ismail Bridge Carnival DESCRIPTION:This yearly event is celebrated twice a yearwith lots of exciting activities such as a Sports Contest\, Drawing & Colouring Contest\, PowerBoat F3000 Contest\, Kayaking and many more. \nThe Sultan Ismail Bridge (Malay: Jambatan Sultan Ismail; Jawi: جمبتن سلطان اسماعيل) is a bridge in Muar town across the Muar River in Johor\, Malaysia.
