Gotong-royong
Gotong-royong is a communal work that’s slowly dying due to the process of urbanisation. In some kampungs, where large number of the youngs are migrating to bigger cities in search of better life, the practise of gotong-royong is slowly dwindling as a result.
Fortunately for my kampung, gotong-royong is still largely practiced as part of the community life.
The kampung folks helped each other planting padi (nuruk) in the farms.

They assist the mourning families with funeral arrangements.
When there’s a social event such as weddings, school anniversary etc the kampung folks comes all out to offer their lending hands.
How about at your kampung or community? Does such conception of reciprocity still being practised?
