Pandemic: Pulau Redang residents fish, sell ‘kueh’ to put food on the table

KUALA NERUS, Aug 15 — Residents of Kampung Baru, Pulau Redang, who depend on the tourism industry, proved that they were not the type to remain idle when the Covid-19 pandemic hit the country.

“All the while, only my husband, Mad Nawi Muda, 56, worked at a resort and took home RM2,000 a month, which was enough for us. For Noor Laila Ab Kadir, 40, it was a great blow to her family when the management of the resort where her husband worked gave him a seven-month unpaid leave. Meanwhile, Mohd Nazri Yasin, 53, said that he had to go to sea to catch fish, despite lacking such skills, after being directed by hotel management to take unpaid leave from 10 to 14 days every month.
