Quenching thirsts, serving happiness: Ham sells sugarcane juice at cut price for the smiles


PUTRAJAYA: Think of a sizzling hot day and the thirst-quenching image of cold sugarcane juice pops into your head but with prices sky high, alas, but a government pensioner is glad to eke out a humble living by selling the drink at a generous price of RM4 for a jug and RM8 for a 1.5 litre bottle.

Rahmah price, he calls it. Compared to other hawkers dangling it for RM14 to RM15 per 1.5 litre bottle and between RM7-RM8 for a jug, the sugar cane juice from 69 year-old Adrus Wahab, or more affectionately known as ‘Ham’, comes half as cheap ... because he grows his own crop.
