In the video shared by TikTok user @kaki_jalann, he recounts his encounter with the enterprising man who had carried his own supply of drinks all the way to the top of the hill. According to the post, the vendor used a large backpack to haul a medium-sized ice container along with several bottles of beverages, including tea and milk green tea.
What caught people's attention even more was the seller's commitment; he didn't just bring drinks; he also packed all the tools needed to serve them. This included plastic bags, clips, and straws, allowing him to prepare refreshing cold drinks for fellow hikers on the spot.
It was also mentioned that the vendor is a regular at Bukit Tok'Kun, often hiking either to do business or simply to stay active. Drinks are sold at RM5 each, and customers can order directly from him if they happen to cross paths at the summit.
The video quickly gained attention online, with many netizens praising the man's dedication and creativity. Some admired his entrepreneurial spirit, calling it a smart way to take advantage of an unexpected location. Others noted that his initiative not only provides a source of income but also serves as motivation for others to be active and health-conscious.
In a world where side hustles often rely on digital platforms or urban crowds, this man's refreshing approach, literally and figuratively, is a reminder that innovation can happen anywhere, even at the peak of a hill.
