Malaysia coffeeshop staff feeds teen with special needs, gains praise for kind gesture

Malaysia – Have your faith in humanity restored with this coffeeshop worker in Malaysia who stepped out of his way to feed a special-needs teenager.

On May 20, netizen Andy Lau went to Facebook to share a sweet moment he encountered while at a coffeeshop in Malaysia.

“This coffeeshop worker was feeding the disabled youth spaghetti. He is just a worker. No one has told him that he must do this, nor will he get any tips for the gesture. But he automatically lent a helping hand. Doesn’t he deserve a ‘like’?” read the caption.

Along with the caption, Lau also posted photos:

Many were reassured that there still exists warmth and love in the world while others commented on the behaviour that Malaysians share; the willingness to extend a helping hand to people of other races.
