2. "For people to donate whatever amount they can"
"I'd really want everyone on social media to donate how much they can (even very small amounts) to Malaysian animal rescuers who are saving many animals in dire conditions and constantly needing financial support, volunteers, or help... I know this would bring me the most joy — all the animals rescued finding forever homes and becoming healthy and happy."

9. "A good night's sleep with no kids waking me up"
"Maybe just one night away with a good spa massage session followed by a nice undisturbed meal knowing that the kids (3yo and 3 month) are taken care off by their grandparents or kiddocare or something."
— Fiki, 36
11. "I want a six-bedroom bungalow"

— Laila, 35
12. "I want a nice carpet!"
"It's so hard to find a good carpet these days. You know, those really nice, aesthetic, Turkish carpets. And I also want a skiing trip to Switzerland. For like seven days. All expenses paid."
— Brenda, 31
13. "An electric litter box for my two cats so I don't have to shovel their poop every day"
"Plus, the litter box will let me know what kind of poop they poop."
— Aly, 25
14. "I would like to have extra RM1,000 to attend my sister's graduation"
"I have a hard time saving money because I have many sudden extra expenses this year (because I am the breadwinner of my family).
"My car broke down few months ago which cost me RM1,500 to fix.
"I managed to buy flight tickets and pay for a hotel for 3D2N during the sale period but I am currently saving for the food and transport expenses (currently saved RM200).
"My budget for transport is RM300 (one day). Food is RM700 (three days). I wish to have RM1,000 to lighten my burden and I can let my mum and sister enjoy the graduation."
— Yew Kar Men, 24
15. "A home makeover"
"Because I just welcomed a new baby, who is now eight months old and he has started crawling, grabbing everything in sight to put in his mouth and grabbing things to pull himself up. So, I need a clean and spacious house so that he has the luxury to roam and explore safely."
— Jess, 42

19. "I would like an iPhone 15 Plus for Christmas"
"Because my current phone's touch sensor doesn't work well, which affects me using the phone when something important comes up. It sometimes shuts down on its own too. Got it fixed two times but not much has changed. My parents can't afford to get me a new phone, so I just bear with the current one without telling them it's broken again."
— XiuYin, 17
20. "A RM459+ Logitech MX Master 3S Wireless Performance Mouse"
"... Because I want to be able to scroll horizontally, so I can waste the 20 seconds I save every day somewhere else. Girlfriends and boyfriends of data analysts or video editors, this mouse is surely what your partner secretly wants, unless they already have it."
— Wan Xiang, 31
