KOTA SAMARAHAN: The initiative by Sarawak National Youth Organisation (Saberkas) and Beras Nasional Berhad (Bernas) to distribute packets of ‘bubur lambuk’ during the Ramadan month has always been the highlight for Muslims throughout the state.
According to Assistant Minister of Youth Development Datuk Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah, the distribution of bubur lambuk (porridge) will also enable families to have an extra dish during the breaking of fast besides the more traditional menu of ‘kuih muih’.
“This is the eleventh year for Saberkas and also the seventh year for Bernas to jointly distribute bubur lambuk to Muslims across the state,” he said during the Jerayawara Bubur Lambuk Saberkas Bernas 2014 at Masjid Kampung Baru here yesterday.
