Brilio.net - Eid al-Fitr is the right moment to gather together with the extended family. At this moment, there is usually a tradition of forgiving each other, eating typical Eid dishes, and also taking photos together.
Apart from that, there are traditions that apparently cannot be abandoned. This tradition is to give money on the Eid al-Fitr holiday to parents, siblings and young nephews. It is natural that the Eid THR money tradition has become the most awaited moment, especially for family members who are still at school and cannot yet earn money independently.
In each region, the way to give THR money is different. In the past, people generally gave money directly without using an envelope. However, many THRs are also put in envelopes with funny pictures, so many people have given them in sealed envelopes.
The value of the money given varies depending on the ability of the person giving the THR money. However, this value is often determined based on certain criteria, for example the age of the family member.
Well, recently social media has been abuzz with a grandfather who went viral thanks to his unique way of distributing THR money to his grandchildren.

Shared in a TikTok account upload @naturecore.delima, this grandfather from the neighboring country of Malaysia distributed his THR money on the condition that his grandson had to show his weight first.
" Duit Raya is subject to greetings (X), duit Raya is subject to weighing (yes) (Eid money is immediately greeted by X, Eid money must be weighed first (yess), " wrote the upload caption.
Reported by brilio.net from Malaysian media siakapkeli.my on Thursday (18/4), it was explained that if the grandson's weight decreases by 1 kilogram, then the THR money will reach their hands easily. In the video, a grandfather can be seen giving THR money to his grandson according to the amount of weight he has lost.

This method is certainly unique because it is different from the others. The grandfather put a scale on the side of the chair to see for himself the weight of each family member.
It is known that the grandfather had previously recorded each of their weights since Idul Fitri last year, then gave them one year to lose weight until this year.
The rule is, if the grandchild succeeds in losing weight, the greater the chance of the grandchild getting THR money. Losing 1 kilogram of weight is equivalent to RM25 or Rp. 84,353.

So, after being judged by her grandfather, the winner was a granddaughter who managed to lose up to 12 kilograms. Overall, the granddaughter managed to receive RM300 or around Rp. 1 million for her THR money she received this year.
This uploaded video was also popular with Indonesian netizens. Some are jealous because they feel that it is hard to lose weight but never get a meaningful reward.
