In the video, Jeffrey Lim, the manager of Red Rock Hotel in Penang can be seen holding a manila card with ‘RM3.00 only’ written on it while selling the food produced by his hotel.

According to Jeffrey Lim, the hotel had to resort to finding other income sources so that the hotel’s staff wouldn’t lose their job as they haven’t had many guests since the implementation of the Movement Control Order.

As a result, the hotel staff had to start selling dishes cooked by their chef to earn extra income.

Jeffrey said among the dishes sold are tomyam mihun, fried rice, chicken rice, and several other items.
