Amoy Street Food Centre boasts a myriad of yummy dishes that have satisfied many office workers’ tummies.

However, with most of them working from home (WFH), traffic at some of our beloved downtown hawker centres are experiencing a nosedive.

On Monday (7 Jun), a concerned netizen named Ms Lau shared an elderly hawker’s plight in the Hawkers United – Dabao 2020 Facebook group. She claims to see his fried kway teow stall suffering greatly amid tightened measures.

Therefore, she urged Singaporeans to support the uncle at Amoy Street who’s has been selling char kway teow since the 1960s.

The Facebook post has fast gone viral, garnering over 2.9k shares in less than a day. Many have also headed down to give the uncle a hand.

The best hawker centres are located in places that are close to residential areas, touristy areas, and workplace/office areas.

Amoy St hawker centre is heavily dependent on officer workers' lunch hour, so a work-from-home arrangement means slow financial suicide for them.

After his death, you might hear and smell the frying of CKT from his stall after midnight.

Great idea for a local horror flick. If done right it can go straight to Cannes Film Festival.
