More and more sinkies going hungry...... - pinkypanther - 10-11-2021

After being let go from his part-time job as a waiter last year during the pandemic, Danny Goh hit rock bottom.


For eight months, he struggled to find work to support his wife and four young children. The family survived on instant noodles, bread dipped in coffee, and biscuits, getting by on the goodwill of relatives and church friends.


While Goh has found a new commission-based job getting people to sign up for government skills upgrading and training courses, his income fluctuates between 800 Singapore dollars ($594) and 2,800 Singapore dollars ($2,078), which is barely enough for their large family.


He perpetually finds himself cash-strapped.


To save money, the family has started eating only two meals a day – simple dishes like chicken soup with rice or potatoes.


Goh often skips meals or eats once a day so that his children can have a bigger share.


Where their fridge used to be stuffed with fresh fruit, chicken, pork and beef, soft drinks and snacks, all of this is now a luxury, and eating out is out of the question.


“It’s a huge pay cut, and honestly it’s one of the hardest and most demoralising periods of my life. Times are really tough,” said the 61-year-old who rents a two-room public housing flat in the northern part of the island.
