“The best thing today is the change-over of our society during the Id Prayer. Last years, people left the newspapers strewn in the street after the prayers. Not anymore now, let’s see. It means my invitation to you to keep Pontianak cleaner will be manifest. We can also see the eagerness and orderliness of the people doing their Eid al-Adha prayers. Also, the number of sacrificial animals we have today is more than that we had in the previous years. And if the distribution runs well, everyone who deserves it will have it. And it is actually a positive sign of the economic growth of our city. This means that more and more people are able to sacrifice. By sacrificing, we are doing the footsteps as the sacrifice of Prophet Ibrahim and Prophet Ismail and Siti Hajar that gives meaning to our life. So, we have to give and sacrifice our best for the good of others, for the sake of better and wider matters, especially to the city of Pontianak,” said H. Sutarmidji, SH, M. Hum, the Mayor of Pontianak.
