Hari Raya Aidilfitri is almost upon us, and as a tradition, it is time to hand out green packets of money to children and the elderly to bless them with good wishes. These are usually adorned with illustrations of ketupats and maybe a kampung house; although they are nice, they are pretty dull.
For those looking to jazz up the green packet distribution process and be known as the cool family member, TikTok user @nawraissabella has shared some unconventional Raya packets you won’t want to throw away (or, rather, recycle).
These with cute and simple drawings have hilarious phrases written on them, including: ‘Jangan buka depan orang tau’ (don’t open in front of others), ‘Hari ni minta maaf, esok buat lagi’ (apologise today, do it again tomorrow), ‘Jangan tanya bila nak kahwin’ (don’t ask when I’m getting married) and ‘Gwenchana…gwenchana yoo’ (a popular saying which means it’s okay in Korean).

This black packet is simple but a goodie with the words ‘Harap Maaf Sedang Pokai' (Sorry, but I’m broke).

This one says ‘Cuba Teka Berapa Ringgit’ (try to guess how many ringgit).

Meanwhile, this accordion-like Raya packet with 10 slots in one is suitable for those who want to give out larger amounts of money (psst…give this to your better half to keep them happy).

Relatives may be confused about why you’re handing out candy…but these money packets are disguised as sweet treats!

These colourful packets have cheeky inscriptions on them like ‘Nah Upah Puasa Penuh’ (Here, your full Puasa wages), ‘Cukup buat beli jajan’ (Enough to buy snacks), and ‘Sumbangan Tunai Rahmah Saya’ (which refers to Sumbangan Tunai Rahmah handouts)’ which we assume has a drawing of PMX on it.
