JOHOR BARU: Grandfather Hu Nai Tew eats alone almost every day. He has been living by himself in Permas Jaya since the death of his wife after a stroke some 10 years ago.

So, he is really looking forward to enjoying a good feast with his family – especially his grandchildren – during their Chinese New Year eve reunion dinner today.
