This festival is a Malaya's New Year. But it means isn't actual New Year. Malaya is Islamic country. So they have Ramadan witch is hasting month. During the period they can't eat and drinking anything. So when this period ends, they celebrate that period end without any trouble. But they are Islamic, so they can't drink alcohol. This festival will be held about a month.
