The Dungun Municipal Council started using the cannon shot for the first time for the entire month of Ramadan. The explosion can be heard within a 7km radius. The cannon shot was fired seven times to mark the start of the first day of fasting and will be done so again on the eve of Hari Raya Aidifitri. — Bernama
