    Hopefully someone millionaires would take over this business and offer them partnership..and upgrade the facilities in soysauce productions. It is the heritage not only to this uncle humble families but also to the nation. Someone a truly Malaysian please save their business..what is the value of money if it to be compared with years of establishment of this family business..After all we are Malaysians..tolong dan bantu lah sesama kita tidak mengira apa bangsa, kaum, agama, keturunan, ethnics....selamatkan lah perusahan SE 1 abad ini..

    😢🙏 So sad for our new young generations of Malaysians Singaporeans & tourists that missed the genuinely tasty & affordable foods that prepared & cooked by old Master Chefs that slowly leaving us from this life over the years ... Many restaurants or stalls now cooked by migrant workers especially in KL! ... 😢🙏🕯🌷🌿🍎🍊🌏✌🕊🇲🇾🇸🇬

    Family businesses have to innovate its operational processes to make it easier, less labour intensive and efficient to be commercially viable for better profit so that the new generations are keen to take over, continue it and thrive to posterity. 😊

    I like his retirement plan. Celebrate, drink coffee and hang out with friends. This can be done only when his business was very successful, sure he is. His dress might not show his wealth, but his mind does.

    My late brother and me used to drop by and borong asam kimcong from this shop every time we balik kampong at Gunung Mesah. The asam kimcong very tasty for rojak or timun or sengkuang calik. Sad to hear this shop is closing down.

      That's the problem lah. Everyone want to save, but nobody want to do. Nobody say I buy the business and save it, that's why have to close lah. But very common with later generation traditional family business, hard to find successor because everyone working professional because our dear parents help us maju. Bless.

    Traditional methods take up alot of hard labour, focus and energy. But quality is there. But these days, where got people wanna put in so much work? Gotta find rare gems in society willing to sacrifice. All fast money, easy money. It's a sad thing business gotta stop, but he is old already and it's time for him to relax. See the young got interest or not. Preschool , tadika, primary, secondary etc.. good luck finding some wise kid willing to put in kungfu.
