PUTRAJAYA: The huge crowd that began arriving for the Prime Minister and Ministers’ Hari Raya Aidilfitri Open House on Sunday (May 8), some as early as 7.30am, saw the gate to the Seri Perdana Complex opened at 9.30am, which was earlier than usual.

They were required to queue at several canopies set up in the area before being allowed to enter Laman Sari, which is the venue of the open house, the first to be hosted by Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob and his Cabinet after he was appointed as Prime Minister on Aug 20 last year.
