The vendor, a woman named Alia, shared her emotional experience as the storm that struck on 10 June 2025 caused severe damage to her Nasi Kerabu Budu Nusuk stall, which she runs with her family. In the video, the food she had prepared for the day was seen scattered across the tarred road beside her stall, a gut-wrenching sight for any small business owner.
The clip shows various ingredients of the popular Kelantanese dish strewn across the ground, including crackers, pickles, sambal, boiled eggs, and more. One of the most devastating images was a large basin of fried chicken toppled and ruined by the storm, representing a major loss in both time and resources.
"Our test on 10 June 2025. May there be sustenance after the rain. The storm was strong," Alia wrote in her post, expressing hope and resilience despite the setback.
According to her, the food cabinet, built to be sturdy, could not withstand the force of the wind and collapsed, shattering the glass and sending the food flying. In a painful moment captured in the video, Alia is seen squatting and crying as she looks at the ruined food in front of her, a symbol of hard work lost in an instant.
"If we consider the food table, it's already heavy, but the wind was even stronger. May we all remain strong in facing the trials of doing business," she added.
The emotional video has since drawn an outpouring of support from netizens, with many flooding the comments section with words of encouragement and empathy. Viewers expressed their heartbreak over the incident and offered virtual hugs and prayers, praising Alia's strength in the face of such adversity.
For many small business owners, this moment was a stark reminder of the unpredictable challenges they face daily. And for Alia, it was a painful but public display of what it means to persevere.
