There's so much to be thankful for as we celebrate Raya this year

Recent years may have changed the way many of us celebrate festive seasons, but it has also made it increasingly clear that the little things in life are often what makes us happy. <3

Maybe it's keeping up with endearing family shenanigans (that seem to be even more pronounced during the holidays :P) through countless texts and video calls. Or, perhaps it's getting a surprise parcel or food delivery from a loved one living in a different state. 

Whatever it may be, we all found ways to cope and connect.  

Aptly titled Lebaran Penuh Kesyukuran, Hong Leong Bank's Raya film this year reminds us that celebrations can still feel special even when things don't go as planned

The video starts off with a young boy relating his past Raya celebrations, where there is always something that tak jadi when his family gathers in their kampung

Lighthearted and playful, Lebaran Penuh Kesyukuran will absolutely get a chuckle out of you. :D

Watch the full video below:

Whether it was spending some quality (screen) time with his cousins...

...or breaking atuk's favourite vase one day before Raya, uh ohhh

He realised that as chaotic as things can get, those times are usually followed by little moments that feel extra special — even when his family couldn't balik kampung to celebrate together

The short film makes it clear that things don't have to be perfect for us to feel gratitude and love

At the end of the day, it's time spent with our loved ones (whether in person or through a screen), that matters most. 

With that being said, there is no doubt all of us are still really stoked to be able to balik kampung, and give our families a great big hug this year. :')
