Yuen Long Resident Asks for Food Assistance in Heartbreaking Post

Yesterday (13th), someone posted a post on the Facebook group “Free Food Flow”, saying that his parents had passed away one after another, and recent sudden changes had caused financial difficulties. Therefore, he posted a post online asking Yuen Long neighbors, “If there is any food flow in Yuen Long District?” Friends in the valley have unwanted cakes, and I am willing to accept them regardless of whether they are expired or not. I hope that food will not be wasted and that it can help me tide over the current difficulties. Thank you.”

As soon as the post came out, a large number of enthusiastic netizens left messages, saying that there was still a lot of food at home to share, “Are the steamed rice cakes and lye rice cakes good for New Year’s Eve?”, “(Carrot cake) 1200g February 16 It’s due and will be delivered to T Town in Tin Shui Wai tomorrow. Is it convenient for you to pick it up? Just be careful.”, “I live in Yuen Long, and we have a lot of wild food that we can share together! PM me.”, “I have some canned food. I’ll eat a lot. Shai, I don’t know whether you are a rock or not.”

However, some netizens questioned the landlord’s fraud, saying, “There are so many cases here”, “It’s the house owner who has moved out again”, “I can’t figure out how to find a social worker”, and one of them even wrote in the message ” I can’t believe this person.” It refers to the poster who keeps using a new account to collect food online in the group. “This person opens several accounts at a time. He lives in Yuen Long and keeps opening different accounts to ask people for food. , In addition, those accounts were blown up by others, and they dropped again, and opened a new account.”

In response to this, the poster expressed her frustration. She responded in the message area, saying that she had used this account for more than 20 years and had not made any fraud. At the same time, she also said that she did not have a kitchen at home and was searching for food online just in the hope that she could reduce the chance of eating out and try to leave money to her two children. “I just want to save some money and hope to collect the leftover supplies that people don’t need. Eat, try to save as much money as possible for Xilu to eat, is this wrong?” Finally, the poster also added in the message, “I have enough food at home” and thanked all the netizens for their help.

After reading this, many netizens left messages to support the poster, “The poster is just asking for food. If you have the ability and can share it, please have a helpful attitude and don’t question it.” , “If you have extra food, just give it to others, and there is no need to challenge others.” They angrily criticized some netizens for their lack of empathy. At the same time, they pointed out that the original purpose of this Facebook group was to share food and reduce food waste. “This group itself is about food sharing.” When it comes to mutual aid, I don’t know why some people want to attack those in need.”
