Packing in the Raya Joy


Readers of The Star newspaper were greeted with a pleasant surprise during Raya, as their morning news arrived wrapped in a special festive cover.

The special festive cover furnished readers with instructions and materials to fold their very own sampul Raya, and gift them as a form of goodwill and well-wishes to children and elderly alike.

As the holidays stretched into the long weekend, eager readers messaged The Star’s WhatsApp chat with photos and videos presenting their finished sampul Raya.
