Part 3/3 • They Could Put Food On The Table — Until The Pandemic Struck. Beans, biscuits and noodles to stave off hunger — with an occasional serving of chicken for their 6-year-old. Mohd Ali, right, eats with his wife, Tawhirah, center, currently in her 2nd trimester of her pregnancy and their daughter Hosna, left. Hosna Ali, 6, eats rice with dried fish at home in Seleyang, Malaysia. Mohd Ali, says the family has not been getting enough nutrients during the pandemic. As they have been living off dwindling savings, food aid from charities organizations and kindly neighbors who occasionally offer provisions. The family's favorite foods — fried chicken, eggs, fruit and bread — are now out of their budget. They eat mainly beans. They can afford a small amount of chicken but give most of it to their daughter. On a personal note, Ali shares he longs for the taste of Kentucky Fried Chicken (@kfcmalaysia) Sometimes, he says, he thinks about moving to Milwaukee, United States of America. It's where his wife's sister lives.
