PETALING JAYA: With Hari Raya just round the corner, Malaysians overseas find themselves feeling a little homesick as they are unable to return home to celebrate the joyous occasion with their loved ones.

University of New South Wales student Muhammad Fakrul Famizi Masri, 21, said he wanted to return home for the celebration, but airfares from Australia were just too high.
