FOR two childhood friends, Ramadan is not just a time to catch up with one another, but it is also time to practise the traditional craft of making bintang raya.

Azman Abdul Aziz and Mohd Khurzaime Illyas, both 37, used to make bintang raya for their family and fellow villagers to welcome Hari Raya Aidilfitri when they were young.
