Located at Sri Serindit Hall, Ranai, the Regent of Natuna, Cen Sui Lan, officially inaugurated the Board of the Serasan Family Association (HKS) for the 2025–2028 term. The event was held in conjunction with a Halal Bihalal gathering and the send-off ceremony for Hajj pilgrims from Serasan and East Serasan Districts for the 1446 Hijri Hajj season on Sunday morning (April 20).
In her remarks to the newly appointed HKS board members, Cen Sui Lan extended her congratulations and best wishes for their new mandate. She expressed hope that HKS would serve as a platform for communication and strengthening ties among the people of Serasan and East Serasan, particularly those residing outside their hometowns.
According to Cen Sui Lan, the people of Serasan and East Serasan are well known for their strong sense of gotong royong (mutual cooperation) and deep-rooted familial bonds. She emphasized that these values should become the foundation for building unity and harmony amidst diversity, ultimately fostering a supportive environment for regional development.
On this occasion, Cen Sui Lan also officially sent off the prospective Hajj pilgrims (JCH) from the two districts. She encouraged all pilgrims to maintain good health, stay united, and follow the guidance of their Hajj leaders, so that they may carry out the pilgrimage smoothly and in accordance with all the pillars of Hajj.
Also present at the event were several members of the Riau Islands Provincial and Natuna District House of Representatives (DPRD), the Chairman of the Hajj Association of Riau Islands Province, the Chairman of the Malay Customary Institution (LAM) of Natuna, and various invited guests.
