From Kabung trip

In the past, cows had to walk along the streets guided by the herder who had to exercise enormous patience.

From Kabung trip

Now technology has made it possible for cows to be transported in lorries and other motorized transport. Incidentally today is Hari Raya Korban. These cows will probably be slaughtered to mark this day of sacrifice and its meat shared out with the community.

    Haha.. pampered cows but unfortunately they would end up in somebody’s plate later. :P

    I hope as much as those cows get eaten as possible — this way, their sacrifice will be all the more worth while. (And yes, I’m one of those who will eat stuff like cow’s stomachs, tendon and such!)

    at least with newer technologies, the animals need not suffer (too much)… May you have a meaningful Hari Raya Korban =]

    Slaughter lives on auspicious day and eagerly watched by many. No qualms whatsoever!
