Jaya mentioned that her works are both "amazing and diverse". She told AsiaOne that she bought a bottle holder "for around $6".

Though it might have seemed like nothing more than a simple purchase, the artist was overwhelmed with emotion and eventually "broke into tears".

The latter explained that she was struggling and had no sales for the last few days.

The elderly woman had a note stating that she is unable to find a part-time job and needs money to support her sister.

How would you advise this elderly woman?
She should get help to list her creations on Lazada, Shopee, Carousell. Also, since she was featured in the news, people would've read about her predicament. I am sure help (more than she's ever hoped for) is on the way. :thumbsup: Although sinkies are generally a fucked up bunch, sob stories would generally bring out the generosity in them.
