Malaysians gear up for Hari Raya Aidilfitri around March 20, 2026, a major festival ending Ramadan with family gatherings, prayers, and travel balik kampung. Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim announces an extra public holiday-either March 20 or 23, based on moon sighting-to ease journeys home. Authorities urge avoiding two-wheelers for long-distance travel due to safety risks on busy highways during the festive rush.
