Tepak Sirih
The offering of a sirih quid or the placing of the complete tepak sirih set carries a message from the giver to the receiver. While the giver presents himself humbly before the receiver. it is clear that such respect should not be interpreted as the demeaning by the giver of himself before the receiver. Other such hidden meaning have also been given to various elements in the complete tepak sirih.
