have a proper Ramadhan filled with joy and laughter.

know their name, age, their backstory and why they want to turn over a new leaf.

later in the episode. They will talk about what food they are planning to cook, how

planning to put up e.g: singing or dancing. It gives an insight to what is the events
theme and what it is going to look like.

So, Ramadan is a holy month where
Muslims like you and I fast.
Ramadan is also the season where
pahala (heaven points) is given
readily with every single good deed
attempted. What better way to spend
Ramadan than extending our efforts
to those who need it. Remedy
Ramadhan is a show where each
week, a different group of volunteers
will be going to different places to do
community service and help out as
much as they can. My name is
Elfaeza.

23 Host Link (Recap on what the 3 Elfaeza 0:59 15:00

have done) Suhaimi

In the spirit of the ramadan month,

three youths have pledged
themselves to give back to the
community.

Lily, Zac and Ali are tasked to host

an event at Muhammadiyah boys
home.

Lily has worked alongside Jenkins

catering company to bring food to the
event. There were trials and
tribulations along the way as Lily
went over budget with the food cost.
However things finally did pull
through.

Zac has put his artistic skills to use

and transformed the area into an
 aesthetically pleasing place for the
party. It was tiring for him, but the
result of it all has made him proud.

Singing and dancing his heart out

during practice, Ali has crafted an
entertaining piece for the boys.
