According to Malay Mail, he said: “I was saddened when he told me he was doing this for a living. May Atuk be under Allah’s protection and may you get blessed with an abundance of wealth, too.

“Whenever I see Atuk, he reminds me of my grandfather,” Ashraf added. 

Ashraf also said that Atuk usually delivers food in the Damansara area and urged social media users to tip Atuk if they ever meet him.

This breaks our heart. Guys, please be kind to Atuk if you come across him delivering food to you.
