Looking for their next meal


The streets of Johor Baru city centre, once abuzz with business activities and visitors from across the border, are now dotted with individuals who sit and wait for free food and handouts from generous passers-by.

A number of them can be seen hanging about near the old KTM station on Jalan Tun Abdul Razak, at Laman Tun Sri Lanang outdoor carpark and in front of the shoplots along Jalan Ibrahim.
