QUEUING up as early as 6am, Mohd Khusaini Mohd Salleh, 19, and his two older sisters were happy to be first in the line to get their free spectacles.

“We decided to come as early as possible as we were worried that there could be a long queue. To our surprise, people started to gather only after 7am.
