KUCHING: For the second consecutive year, Mother’s Day will be celebrated in a modest manner in view of the Covid-19 pandemic.
It is still unsafe for people to gather on a large scale and people have been advised to celebrate it at home instead of eating out.
Mother’s Day, which is celebrated annually, is about honouring motherhood and showing appreciation to all mothers.
New Sarawak Tribune spoke to members of the public on their plans for Mother’s Day.
Many have said they will spend it with their families at home and cook a special meal for their mothers.
They also noted that the day has not lost its meaning despite the restrictions imposed by the pandemic.
