Not only do Malaysians struggle with the lack of convenient public transport, but many also face challenges in affording a car. With the average salary, it is difficult for many to cover rent, food, and the additional costs of owning a car, including petrol and toll fees.
M’sian man seeks to trade his motor for a car
Recently, Muhammad Farees, an expectant father, posted in a Facebook group expressing his wish to trade his motorbike for a car. His goal is to ensure easier commuting once his child arrives, but he does not have the money to buy a car.
Farees emphasized that he does not expect a luxury car and is open to all types of vehicles. He also mentioned the urgency of preparing for the arrival of his baby on November 1st.
“I stand by my wife’s decision”
Due to financial constraints, Farees cannot afford to buy a car. As a result, he is hoping to find someone willing to trade a car for his motorbike.
Farees shared that his wife will select a car she feels is best for their baby, and that he stands by her choice.
He might be getting a car in return
The caption of the post read:
I’ll swap my motorbike for any car I can get. I don’t have enough money to buy a car. It doesn’t matter what kind of car it is. I’ll go with whatever car my wife prefers. I support her decision. She’s the boss.
The post has gained significant attention online, with one commenter even offering to trade their car for Farees’ motorbike without asking for any additional payment.
Netizens were supportive
Netizens were moved by his commitment to preparing for his baby’s arrival, leading to an outpouring of supportive comments and reactions in the comment section.
The comments were flooded with people offering their cars in exchange for the motorbike.
“Congratulations, sir, for being a responsible husband and father. Hopefully, there will be more blessings to come for your family. My husband once saved money to buy an RXZ but met me instead, and he married me first. After 10 years of marriage, I gifted him an RXZ.”
‘Inspira 2011 (auto) market value over 20k… If interested, just swap, no need to top up…
I’m donating this for the child who will be born soon…’
‘This brother is great… thinking about his child and wife, not his expensive hobby anymore… no longer thinking about rare items… may you stay steadfast and have all your affairs made easy… I want to swap, but I don’t have a car’
