Photos of a senior citizen working as a mascot at a night bazaar in Wangsa Maju recently went viral online
In the photos shared by several netizens on social media, the woman can be seen taking photos with people on the streets of the bazaar.
She then takes off the head of her bunny mascot costume and rests on the side of the road, with a tired look on her face.
While her identity has not been revealed, one Facebook user speculated that the senior citizen is working full-time as an entertainer behind the fluffy costume.
"I was shocked to see that one of those cartoon characters was a senior citizen, around my mother's age and probably your parents' age. I am thrilled to see her determination, moreover, at this age, she should have rested and just stayed at home.
"You can see the tiredness on her old face but what can I do, maybe this is her only way to generate halal income," one user wrote on their Facebook post.
The Facebook post went viral and drew mixed reactions from netizens
One user commented that she felt sad seeing the woman still working at her age.
"Entertaining others when at her age, she should be resting at home with her family," they wrote
"Her face looks tired. Pity her still looking strong in looking for rezeki (sustenance). May God ease her journey," wrote another.
Meanwhile, in another Facebook post sharing the same story about the woman, one user commented that senior citizens sometimes love working to pass time and be useful to society.
