Banjarmasin, South Kalimantan (AntaranewsKalsel) - Banjar ethnic descent in Malaysia wishes to share  sacrificial animals on Eid al-Adha in poor residential areas in Banua or South Kalimantan.


The desire was delivered by two public figures of Banjar tribe living in Malaysia when Silaturrahmi Forum Kulaan Banjar (FSKB) entourage visiting last October, said FSKB member Akhmad Arifin to AntaranewsKalsel in Banjarmasin on Sunday.

Both Banjar Malaysia figures incorporated in Malaysia Pertubuhan Kulaan Banjar are Abdul Gani and Zainal Abidin Sulaiman.

At that moment, said Akhmad Arifin, they were driving together. They tell that the members of Pertubuhan Kulaan Banjar Malaysia each year worship sacrificial animals, but always share the sacrificial animals to the pockets of Muslim settlement in Cambodia.

Hearing these stories, Akhmad Arifin joked once asked, why should to Cambodia. "Why not to ancestral land area just in Banjar, South Kalimantan," he said.

Necessarily the leaders of the Banjar Malaysia said there was a desire to answer these, but they are confused who is willing to coordinate.

Akhmad Arifin known as a member of the Green Community Forum (FKH) directly expressed his willingness. "I'll do it," he said.

Most Banjar-Malaysian citizens are from Kelua, Amuntai, and Alai that actually in these three regions there are still many poor people who should be subject to the division of the sacrificial animals.
