Truly heart-warming, the campaign revisits the age-old tradition of moon-sighting and reminds people of a time when technology wasn’t at everyone’s beck and call. Today, thanks to the advent of technology, moon-sighting information is easily available to observers through various digital platforms including social media.
Huawei’s initiative [as cited in a press release] is a campaign that focuses on the importance of moon-sighting and the nostalgia of traditions as they are passed down to younger generations.
Huwaei’s campaign also sheds light on Ramadan in modern times, celebrating tradition, history and culture.
