An elderly Malaysian street performer has captured the hearts of netizens for her unwavering dedication to earning a living. The makcik was spotted donning a mascot costume to entertain the public on the streets of Kuala Lumpur.
Several images of the elderly person were uploaded when she was working at Wangsa Maju Night Bazaar.
In a Facebook post, Salleh shared photos of the elderly performer and wrote, “Seeing their determination, I am amazed, especially at this age where they should be resting and staying at home.”
“Behind the joy of the public taking pictures with cartoon characters, I was surprised to see one of the cartoon characters was an elderly person around the age of my mother and perhaps the age of your parents too.”
At times, the elderly appeared exhausted and opened up the ‘mascot’ to breathe fresh air when struggling to earn a living.
Salleh’s post quickly went viral, with many netizens expressing admiration for Makcik’s resilience.
The netizen added that they pray that Allah will make things easier for the elderly person, bless them with abundant sustenance and good health.
