What are we doing?

We are curating and compiling a list of local businesses within our community, in order to generate awareness of their shops and trying to help them as much as we can to strive through this difficult times.

How can you help?

Order takeaways & deliveries

Some of the food outlets and eateries are still available for takeaways and deliveries. So while we are at home, we can still support by ordering from them and enjoy our favourite meals at home.

Shop online

Retails are not allowed to operate except for those selling general necessities. But we can buy from them through online.

Know more about local business

With everyone stuck at home, maybe it is the best time to know more about what does our community offers. What are the services and products that our local community does; and when we recover from the crisis, we can go back to support them.

Give loves & support

At this moment of crisis, what everyone need is love and positive vibes. Share those positive vibes by giving comments and send these shop owners and employees messages of encouragements.

Food Outlets & Eateries that are available for takeaways & deliveries

We are in the midst of curating and compiling the list with details. Please be patient and stay updated with us.
