The Reality of the Raya Rush

The lead-up to Raya is a whirlwind of grocery runs, deep cleaning, and late nights in the kitchen. By the time the first open house begins, most women have already put in an incredible amount of effort for their families. The quiet moments in between are not just a break. They are earned.

XIXILI’s pajamas are made for those moments. Easy to move in, soft enough to wear through the night, and the kind of pieces that make coming home feel like something to look forward to. Designed to fit a wide range of body types, every woman can find something that feels as good as it looks.

“Raya is everything. The food, the family, the laughter. And at the end of it all, she deserves to rest just as well as she celebrated,” says Tara Tan, Marketing Director at XIXILI.

Comfort That Carries Through the Season

Raya may bring the occasion, but the shift happening in Malaysian wardrobes goes further than that. Women are increasingly treating sleepwear as a considered part of their self-care, not just something to change into before bed.

“We often talk about the joy of gathering, but we rarely talk about the exhaustion that comes with it,” Tara Tan adds. “Our goal for Raya 2026 is to ensure that when the last guest leaves, every woman has a high-quality piece of loungewear to retreat into. It is about honouring the work she does by giving her the rest she deserves.”

Quality loungewear for the wind-down, the slow morning, and every quiet moment in between has become one of the most considered purchases a woman makes this season.

Made to Be Worn, Not Just Owned

Good sleepwear should not sit tucked away at the back of a drawer. It should be the first thing she reaches for at the end of a long day, worn in and looked forward to. XIXILI’s range is built for exactly that, styles that settle naturally into her routine and carry her well beyond the festive season.

The full sleepwear collection is available online and at XIXILI boutiques nationwide. To shop the range, visit www.xixili-intimates.com.Hashtag: #XIXILI

本会合は、持続可能な森林経営に関する理解の深化および、バイオマス分野を含むインドネシアの森林関連産業を支えるガバナンス枠組みに対する相互理解の強化を目的とした、国際パートナーとの継続的な対話の一環として開催されたものである。

インドネシア林業省 森林産品加工・マーケティング開発局長のアデ・ムカディ氏は、インドネシアが森林資源の利用を国家規制および持続可能性原則に基づき責任ある形で実施するため、森林ガバナンス体制の強化を継続していることを強調した。

同氏は次のように述べた。
「インドネシアは、合法性保証、持続可能性基準、そして独立した検証制度を統合した包括的な森林ガバナンスの枠組みを構築しています。私たちは引き続きこの制度の強化を進め、透明性、説明責任、そしてサプライチェーンの信頼性を確保していきます。」

東京ガスおよび阪和興業は、ゴロンタロ州ポフワト県において事業を展開するPT Biomasa Jaya Abadi（PT BJA）が生産する木質ペレットの購入企業である。

林業省 森林産品認証・マーケティング課長のトニー・リアント氏は、インドネシアの森林ガバナンス制度が以下の四つの柱に基づいていると説明した。すなわち、生態系・社会・経済のバランスを確保する持続可能な森林経営、透明性および説明責任、規制遵守、そして先住民族および地域社会の権利尊重である。

この枠組みの中核を成すのが、インドネシアの「木材合法性および持続可能性検証制度（SVLK）」である。同制度は、森林産品が合法かつ持続可能に管理された森林から生産されていることを保証する国家的な認証制度である。

SVLKは、伐採、輸送、加工、輸出に至るサプライチェーン全体を対象としており、森林事業者、産業事業者、および輸出事業者を監査するために認定された独立検証機関によって実施されている。

また、インドネシア政府は、国際市場の要求の変化に対応するため、制度のさらなる高度化を進めている。これには、伐採地点におけるジオロケーションベースのモニタリングの導入や、輸送および輸出関連書類のデジタル化などが含まれる。これらの取り組みは、トレーサビリティの強化およびEU森林破壊防止規則（EUDR）などの新たな国際的デューデリジェンス要件への対応を支援することを目的としている。

会合ではまた、インドネシアの森林利用計画制度についても議論が行われた。これには、長期森林経営計画に基づく伐採活動を規定する「年次作業計画（RKT）」が含まれ、生物多様性保全および環境保護措置が組み込まれている。

林業省は、森林利用活動が厳格な規制監督およびモニタリング体制の下で実施されており、環境保護措置および持続可能な森林経営の確実な履行が確保されていることを改めて強調した。

なお、本会合は、東京ガスおよび阪和が3月2日（月）にポフワト県政府と行った協議に続くものである。サイフル・A・ムインガ県知事は、PT BJAがすべての許認可要件を満たし、合法的に事業を運営していること、さらに1,500人以上の雇用を創出することで地域経済に貢献していることを確認した。

PT BJAを含むポフワト県への投資は、地域経済成長率を約9％押し上げており、地方政府は同地域における投資活動に対して厳格な監督を継続している。

The meeting was part of Indonesia‘s ongoing engagement with international partners to strengthen mutual understanding of sustainable forest management and the governance framework underpinning Indonesia‘s forest-based industries, including the emerging biomass sector.

Ade Mukadi, Director of Forest Product Processing and Marketing Development at the Ministry of Forestry, emphasized that Indonesia continues to strengthen its forest governance architecture to ensure that forest utilization is conducted responsibly and in accordance with national regulations and sustainability principles.

“Indonesia has established a comprehensive forest governance framework that integrates legality assurance, sustainability standards, and independent verification. We continue to enhance this system to ensure transparency, accountability, and supply chain integrity,” Ade stated.

Tokyo Gas and Hanwa are buyers of wood pellets produced by PT Biomasa Jaya Abadi (PT BJA), which operates in Pohuwato Regency, Gorontalo Province. Tony Rianto, Head of the Sub-Directorate for Forest Product Certification and Marketing, explained that Indonesia‘s forest governance system is guided by four key pillars: sustainable forest management that balances ecological, social, and economic functions; transparency and accountability; regulatory compliance; and respect for indigenous peoples and local communities.

Central to this framework is Indonesia‘s Timber Legality and Sustainability Verification System (SVLK), a national assurance system ensuring that forest products originate from legal and sustainably managed sources. The system covers the entire supply chain—from harvesting and transportation to processing and export—and is implemented through independent verification bodies accredited to audit forest operators, industries, and exporters.

Furthermore, Indonesia continues to enhance the system in line with evolving global market expectations, including the development of geolocation-based monitoring at harvesting sites and the digitalization of transport and export documentation.

These measures are designed to strengthen traceability and support compliance with emerging international due diligence requirements, such as the European Union Deforestation Regulation (EUDR).

During the meeting, discussions also covered Indonesia‘s forest utilization planning framework, including the Annual Work Plan (RKT), which regulates harvesting activities under approved long-term forest management plans and incorporates biodiversity safeguards and conservation measures.

The Ministry reaffirmed that forest utilization activities are subject to rigorous regulatory oversight and monitoring mechanisms to ensure compliance with environmental safeguards and sustainable forest management practices.

The meeting followed an earlier discussion between Tokyo Gas and Hanwa and the Pohuwato Regency Government on Monday (March 2). Regent Syaiful A.

Mbuinga confirmed that PT BJA has fulfilled all licensing requirements, operates legally, and contributes to the local economy by employing more than 1,500 workers.

Investment in Pohuwato, including from PT BJA, has contributed to regional economic growth of around 9%, with the local government maintaining strict oversight of investment activities in the region.

Specifically, in addition to the existing incentives currently available, customers who switch from old gasoline vehicles to new VinFast electric vehicles during the program period will receive an additional 3% discount for cars and 5% discount for scooters. The program will be applied across all four markets: Vietnam, India, Indonesia, and the Philippines.

In line with VinFast’s pioneering spirit, GSM Green and Smart Mobility Joint Stock Company has also announced an immediate 10% reduction in fares for electric mobility services on the Xanh SM platform in Vietnam and Green SM in Indonesia from March 11 to March 31, 2026. This initiative offers customers a more environmentally-friendly and cost-effective transportation option.

The program may be extended depending on international developments and future fuel price movements.

Ms. Duong Thi Thu Trang, Deputy CEO of Global Sales, VinFast, stated: “The special ‘Trade Gas for Electric’ program launched in March across four key markets is VinFast’s timely response to geopolitical volatility that is affecting socio-economic conditions in many countries around the world. As one of the pioneering manufacturers leading the global electric vehicle revolution, VinFast together with companies in Vingroup’s green ecosystem aims to help reduce the impact of fuel prices on people’s daily lives while also lowering environmental pollution through smarter, more sustainable, and more cost-efficient mobility solutions.”

The special “Trade Gas for Electric” program will be implemented in parallel with and combined with other available incentive programs in each market. Through layered incentives, Vingroup and companies within its ecosystem aim to create favorable conditions for customers to transition quickly to electric vehicles, reduce dependence on gasoline, stabilize daily life, and contribute to building a cleaner and more civilized living environment.
