ALOR SETAR: Hadawiyah Abu Hassan spent a week sewing new Hari Raya outfits for her children and herself, but the family did not wear them on the day of the festival. The mother of four was saving the clothes for another event, which she deemed to be more important.

Yesterday, the family changed into their new attire to attend the Malaysia Madani Open House here, where they met Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.
