Not to forget, Bertrand also wishes a happy Eid al-Adha to all Muslims who celebrate. All this time, he, a person of Chinese descent, is known as someone who is very tolerant in matters of race and religion.

"My religion is Christianity, but since I was a child, I grew up in a Muslim environment. Some of my family and many foster parents who are like my own parents, as well as my friends, are Muslims. We love and respect each other," added Bertrand.

Furthermore, Bertrand also revealed that he had experienced hardships in the past. Even then, for him and his family, being able to eat meat was a luxury that could rarely be experienced.

"That's why on Eid al-Adha, I always try to participate in qurban as a form of gratitude, and I also want to share with our brothers and sisters in need. Why not take the opportunity of a good day to share with others," he explained.

Bertrand also briefly discussed the pandemic situation that has impacted many people. He prays that all the difficulties we are currently facing can end soon.
