In the bustling makeshift kitchen at Wat Thewa Sunthon in Bangkok, a group of volunteers is seen busy preparing food for those affected by the Covid-19 pandemic in the city.

Gathering at the makeshift kitchen as early as 7am, the volunteers wearing face masks, gloves and medical caps, were busy cutting chilies and vegetables, mincing garlics, and preparing rice to be cooked.
