Selling popiah to fight cancer


For a good cause: Ong attending to a customer at her popiah shop.

MALACCA: Touched by stories about cancer survivors, including that of her mother, the seller of Malacca’s famous popiah in Jalan Ong Kim Wee is again setting aside a day’s takings from her business for Relay for Life Malaysia, a programme in aid of cancer awareness.

This is the third year that Verlynn Ong has contributed towards the project organised by the National Cancer Society Malaysia.
