GEORGE TOWN: After weeks of rationing, Khar Cheow Beng, who is blind in one eye, can finally heave a sigh of relief after receiving food and essential supplies.
The 60-year-old, who lives alone, said the supplies could last for a month.
“These items will save me time and money, and I can ration them to cook meals,” said Khar, who was among 15 recipients of the emergency food aid given by the Penang Mutiara Charity and Voluntary Association.
