The event itself got appreciation from Panggang Island Urban Village Head, Muhammad Fakih Burhanudin. Besides celebrating Ramadan, it is also useful for strengthening friendships among fellow Muslims and exploring community potential.

"I really support it, as it brings positive value to the younger generation. God willing, it will be lively and many people will participate," he closed.
