When overfeeding leads to wastage

GOOD Samaritans are often found offering food to the homeless, but because of a lack of proper coordination on some occasions, these people end up getting too much food, sometimes even three feeds an hour.

So apart from assisting soup kitchens in their activities, Malaysians who want to help these people can do much more such as providing clothes, toiletries, blankets, medical checks and supplements.
