Malaysian Children Perform Exercise Before Ramadan


Malaysian Muslim children perform morning exercise at their preschool in Putrajaya, outside Kuala Lumpur, September 12, 2007. Muslims in Malaysia begin the fasting month of Ramadan on Thursday, by fasting from dawn to sunset and are forbidden from smoking, having sexual relations, lying, breaking promises or cheating. It is to remind them of the plight of the poor and to cleanse themselves by exercising abstinence and self-control.
