HARI Raya Aidilfitri is a time for Muslims to celebrate with their loved ones, but for those working in frontline and essential services, it is a sacrifice they make in the name of duty.

For example, wildlife assistant Mohd Naim Hamiz, 27, will be spending most of his day during Hari Raya next week with his charges at Johor Elephant Sanctuary in Kota Tinggi.
