IMAS Ramadan gathering brings together Indonesian community in Singapore to strengthen faith and community ties
The Ambassador of the Republic of Indonesia to Singapore, Hotmangaradja Pandjaitan, attended a Ramadan iftar gathering organised by the Indonesia Muslim Association in Singapore (IMAS). The event brought together approximately 650 members of the Indonesian Muslim community and diaspora residing in Singapore.
The gathering was held under the theme “Iman Kuat, Kehangatan Silaturahim di Negeri Singapura,” and aimed to strengthen community ties and religious values during the Holy Month of Ramadan. The event was also attended by officials from the Embassy of the Republic of Indonesia in Singapore.
In his remarks, Ambassador Pandjaitan expressed appreciation to IMAS for its active role in fostering unity and strengthening religious values among Indonesians living in Singapore. He noted that Ramadan provides an important opportunity for the community to reinforce faith, deepen social connections, and promote solidarity among Indonesian nationals abroad.
The Ambassador also emphasised the importance of maintaining mutual support and building a harmonious community that contributes positively to society. According to him, a cohesive and supportive Indonesian community in Singapore plays a meaningful role in strengthening people-to-people relations between the two countries.
The iftar gathering included religious reflections, prayers, and social interaction among participants before breaking the fast together. Organisers expressed hope that such initiatives would continue to strengthen community bonds and preserve the spirit of togetherness among Indonesians in Singapore during Ramadan.
