No colouring book, RM15 splurged on chicken chop, confesses tearful pupil


PETALING JAYA: What do you do if the food is good and you want more? You order a second helping.

It's no wonder seven-year-old Nur Amira Amani Mohd Ridwan ended up spending the RM15 meant for a colouring book on two plates of chicken chop at the school canteen.

A video of the Year One pupil tearfully admitting to her mother that the chicken chop was too delicious, has since gone viral.

In the one-minute and two-second video, Nur Amira's mother, Suzana Dayanna Ali, playfully interrogated the girl asking her what happened to the RM15.

A sobbing Nur Amira confessed that she had spent it on two plates of chicken chop that was "too delicious", a plate of fried noodles, and ice cream from the school canteen.

"Amira is kind of funny, she's like an entertainer in our family. Her brother and sister like to tease her," father Mohd Ridwan Alias said when contacted by mStar Online, The Star’s Malay-language portal.

"The day before she asked for money to buy a colouring book, but there was no colouring book to be found the next day.
