Man buys food from struggling hawkers to feed the hungry - superadmin - 07-11-2021 KLANG: While thousands of Malaysians continue to suffer due to the rough economic climate caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, it is inspiring to see many individuals stepping forward to help the less fortunate.

Poh has found a way to simultaneously alleviate the financial burdens of street hawkers and the hungry, by ordering food from the former to feed the latter.
