Hoarders admit stockpiling for their own contentment


PETALING JAYA: From rabbit food to boxes of potato chips, hoarders who confessed to their bulk buying say they did it to have peace at home.

A writer, who only wanted to be known as Mark, said his house had always been well stocked with a specific brand of potato chips and luncheon meat even before the movement control order (MCO).“So, if we can’t find it during the MCO period, it will be like the end of the world for my seven-year-old son, ” said Mark, who is in his 50s.
