In the wake of the Covid-19 crisis, a number of initiatives have sprung up, designed to help all sorts of local F&B set-ups survive a situation so bad, some analysts predict it might be worse than the Great Depression.

Supporting these initiatives might just mean keeping your favourite local restaurants in business, as nearly all local eateries have seen an over 80% revenue drop. Worse still, a poll conducted by the Malaysian F&B Operators Alliance, which has over 500 F&B members indicates that without aid, over 50% of restaurants polled will be insolvent in one to three months. So help your favourite local eateries out in any way you can!
