Resident Coordinator Valerie Julliand Extends Greetings for Eid al-Fitr

Salam,

On behalf of the United Nations family in Indonesia, I wish you, Eid Mubarak!

Selamat Hari Raya Idul Fitri – mohon maaf lahir dan batin.

I know we are still recovering from the pandemic this year, and I am sorry to hear some – if not all of us – have to rely on technology once again to be with the family on this important occasion.

Even if it’s only through a phone call, or Zoom, I wish you and your loved ones enjoy the celebratory delight, nonetheless.

***

Lest we forget, some of our brothers and sisters are not as lucky as we are.

They are still suffering across the world, trapped in warzone, hunger and constant threat.

***

I sincerely hope that this Eid will bring smiles to their faces through our sentiments of solidarity, brother and sisterhood, compassion, love and peace.

May the values of solidarity, unity and compassion of Eid Fitri be an inspiration for all of us around the world.

Thank you.
