This Biomedical Science Grad Is A Next Gen Hawker: Tree Coconut

[@barfinglel9127]

->Ppl complaining about the hawker culture fading away. ->also ppl heavily suggesting that young hawkers are inadequate

[@kimminsung2793]

So fking true

[@ojustasmr1705]

😂😂😂😂

[@Muhdreza1]

People contradict themselves

[@barfinglel9127]

O Just ASMR agreed. Duality of men m8.

[@93hothead]

exactly

[@bledback2life]

Some Singaporeans can be incredibly ageist. Hawker stalls aren't just for old people to run. In fact, the younger generations ought to be encouraged to continue the culinary traditions of Singapore. As it stands, plenty of traditional dishes are already disappearing. All power to Charlene.

[@arrowstheorem1881]

We should know what is the MOM rules for hiring service sector workers then you may have a better understanding why so many elderlies slog at hawker stalls

[@rennzx5026]

Life is a cycle. All the "old" aunties, uncles used to be young too right? Every generation should continue the heritage when the right age strikes

[@Kianglekable]

Well, the "ageist" generation will soon die out with their "snide remarks"

[@kichaa13]

Society has been brainwashed to think that corporate employment is the pinnacle, when being a successful business owner is much better (but riskier)

[@lkh1048]

Her passion is already so awe-inspiring.. many milennials today struggle with finding their passion and baiscally dislike their jobs.

[@philipanzelmo9711]

Don’t bother about the criticism. Just do what you enjoy doing.

[@GilangD21]

You can see how well educated she is from the way she speak, she probably able to find work in corporate but choose to run the hawker instead. Thats show how pure her passion is, its brimming and infectous at least to me.

[@wenloh]

"Get a safe 8-5 job la youngster" and be a wage slave? Why, this girl has a great entrepreneurial drive. Being the head of a rooster is better being the tail of an ox. Drown out the noise and keep on keeping on

[@ekichandra]

Cant agree more... Being a wage slave is a suicidal... I was entrepreneur until i seduced to take a job in a gov dept.. so depressing

[@alicea5]

ekichandra you can always save enough to quit and start your business or even start the side business on the side. Apparently, I’m going to the county in the employment and social service since my company is moving out of town. I will continue to run my side business and hopefully make if I just build up confident I can began to hire people to do the work for me. I would large a portion of my business profit to pay worker, but who knows. Trying is better than not

[@alicea5]

Being a slave wage depends on the person. Some people don’t have that business drive like I am, but I still end up starting a business under the persuasion of my parents. Now it became my business because they back off entirely and I keep at it because it help pays family bills and would help me save up for other things I wanna try.

[@germancommentresearcher6938]

Most Singaporean answer I've ever seen (☞ ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)☞

[@mobilenotherwise5000]

"still got energy to try new things" sounds like a smart roast to the uncle lol

[@pishedbloke]

She had a great education, from her father, from her overseas exposure, and she is still learning from her neighbouring hawkers. She speaks well, has a good even temperament and rationalizes well and remains respectful to her customers and elders. Keep it up young lady, I am telling you, the 9-5 working world isn't the bed of roses people think it is. All the best!

[@rafiwankenobi]

Pointed out everything that is wrong with the Singapore mindset..

[@alansmith888]

Changing the food game, one youngster at a time. Love seeing this! Passion and energy is much needed for the F&B community.

[@viralinfection123]

I visited this place. I really liked the Nasi Lemak and had pleasant experience.

[@mrguyfawkes5180]

Nothing but my absolute respect for this young lady hawker. Don't mind all those doubters. YOU GO GAL, JIAYOU!!!

[@meat_loves_wasabi]

Keep going girl.... I remember Ho Seng Kee Wanton Mee... it’s a famous old Wanton Mee shop in JB.... it was a small shop & the son took over the business eventually and there was a time he wanted to give up.... but he kept going and was able to expand and doing very well now

[@parcos79]

THANK FUCK FOR THIS YOUNG LADY......not just chasing money and a comfortable life...pure passion.

[@anthtan]

We should be grateful that our young, qualified people still want to become hawkers.

[@xlben10]

Man if i had a hawker to inherit to run. I would literally drop out, the traditional education route is not the only way anymore.

[@Ryyza7]

this girl has so much positivity i wish i can have same energy like her

[@9gemini]

The least people willing to do the business you are in, is a blessing. Less competition! You make more money than those ignorant people who has ‘cool’ job

[@annndyle]

Kudos to her, you should take these kinda risks when you are younger because you have little to lose, you coulnd't take this risk later in life with a family and things like a mortage.

[@sanjay8854]

This girl is so good hearted *much loves*

[@clearblueskies1145]

So enervating to hear about such strong community spirit & elders supporting a young start-up. Rare, nowadays

[@glipglobs6679]

She's soo pretty😍

[@nazariah]

It's better to be your own boss than answering to people asking stupid questions, attend pointless meetings, etc

[@temasekb]

who says hawkers cannot earn more than those in corporate

[@ozma2985]

Probably some can, but how many do? And what is the trade-off in hours spent working, benefits, vacation etc.? Genuinely curious to read up if you have any sources, because the video doesn't touch on the topic and all I've ever heard and read is the contrary.

[@Remomba]

Action > Reading I would not Sugar coat and say this lady is going to be successful... but she is going through a lot failures very quickly... through her dads recipe.. and there can only be so many failures.. before she would hit that nice sweet spot.. and find her niche in the market.... and the road to success begins from there. Never give up... and failures are finite... make as much mistakes as possible... and continue to take action... working 100-120 hour weeks And to the people looking at her like deers in the headlights... questioning and criticising... it’s going to be harder for you to succeed because she has already found her passion... and where’s yours? xD

[@FfblastBlogspot]

But the risk is higher

[@Remomba]

FFBLAST GAME ENTHUSIAST Some people save their way to financial freedom While others Invest their way to financial freedom An entrepreneur takes risks... and the greatest of them take massive & dangerous risks like we see in tech companies today entrepreneurship is not for everyone... Just like the way many start ups fail... “Many are called, but only few are chosen”

[@ohmingfeng9351]

i say

[@musasalehmohammad8513]

this is a kind of new generation rising . Its really a good thing beacuse all work is equally important as long as its honest job and you feel good about it

[@cybergod77]

thumbs up to these young hawkerpreneurs...may they carry the hawker legacy to the next level

[@psreinc]

Thanks Seth for this series of videos highlighting various hawkers and f&b businesses around Singapore.. it's nice to hear the stories behind the food..

[@towerguarder]

Proud of people like that. Pursue your passion. Success will follow. Will go try out the stall for sure!

[@tayspiderx]

[@identityunknown4204]

Actually cooking deals alot with science. Your pretty much a scientist just creating delicious food.

[@datascience1369]

This gal will start a chain sooner or later, humble and truthful to herselves.

[@abuyudhistira4129]

I love her spirit it makes me get inspired

[@oldbutbold]

Kind hearted, young, pretty, educated, hardworking. Any man would be damn proud to have her as his gf/wife.

[@asa.l9151]

You go girl! Do what you LOVE.

[@Kennyjap]

Basically the T-Shirt worn is 9 years old

[@parcos79]

[@francislow3176]

Ate here a couple of weeks ago. Indeed it was very delicious.

[@anthonyarifin]

Thanks for the video, shall try it soon! Always eat nasi lemak at Jln besar but it's punggol nasi lemak, hope this is better!

[@arrowstheorem1881]

Instead of saying no choice , need money, many say, I clean toilets enduring the stench whole day and bacterias just to pass time instead of retiring

[@pIacehoIders]

Aw so sweet at the end

[@rxlky]

Wah I miss SG style nasi lemak

[@iHaz2Krayonz]

Do what makes you happy, you killin it girl ♥

[@jag4064]

I am so proud of you 👍🏻

[@wolf-man-bear-pig-torque]

Running your own business XXXXX times better than working for others. For those who have been in the society for a while, you all know it's true.

[@elegizuhri-egi-eya]

Yes it is, i do understand since I've been work as corporate slave for 6 years. Now i starting my own small business in 29 yo, struggling but feeling better.

[@tharindu6]

I wish you nothing but success! Onya girl !!!

[@Icebingsu]

that's dedication..

[@pinzhengzhang3776]

You go girl!

[@argent_ice248]

Wow. I never thought there would be gate-keepers for hawker culture too. Guess they're everywhere.

[@user-us6ce7me8k]

Everything looks great! 👌👌😋

[@YohannesKristiawan]

Wow. Amazing. I'll visit your place someday. I am from Jakarta...

[@udcaps]

Push on! Looks great!

[@moomoo5198]

What the... potential wifu 😍😍😍

[@ferisusanto6036]

That's look delicious , i would love to try that food :( aaa damn it i miss Singapore Hawker Foods so much

[@leelengchuan1]

wake up at 4.30am everyday ? i haven't done that before, maybe sometime only during my army days.

[@polobuncharsiew]

the taste is not bad. i chance upon one fine noon and sit just direct opposite. i realise that the food taste even better with every mouthful when i look up at charlene battling the hot and sweat, then another bite and look at her and continue. It was a strange feeling, a sudden pinged of pain into my heart and it was not long before i realise, it was love at first sign.

[@rxlky]

Don't play play she's mine

[@soshification]

lolol

[@hwaiting6759]

Bruh.

[@chantalmonique2353]

Wtf!

[@Cmi1267]

Damn geli right you talk like that? It’s really pervy and you need to calm down

[@rennzx5026]

Hope she stays in the hawker line for a long time. These days people don't commit to a job for long compared to older gens

[@junganlee9979]

Look's delicious🤩👍

[@bensgoodeats1493]

I will try one day

[@astorrewills8702]

Way to go!!👍🏻👍🏻

[@hanzz9083]

study hard to get degree(s) from SG / overseas > work in hawker. so what's the use of the degree?

[@watiu9lei]

加油！ keep it up!

[@BancerPlaysMC]

I don't get it... do I still call her auntie when ordering or not?

[@lnwon8836]

call her '美女' or 'boss'

[@taroshibuya7011]

Good on you girl!

[@mewekachichi]

So... R u hiring?

[@ksam8987]

Just do what makes you happy, the fuck with what people says bcause they wouldn’t take any responsible for what they’ve said

[@mocfive]

What is a hawker

[@SomethingNick]

Honestly most biomed grads end up in food service anyway, I should know I'm one of them 😩

[@lchen28]

What language is she speaking?

[@elizaeri1295]

Singaporean English..

[@zigstarlosat8639]

i had thought i was the only one wondering that

[@darvidkoh2707]

Eh, buayas, just eat the food and show support to our budding hawkers.

[@weendylry5598]

Why th does this keep appearing on my suggestion?

[@wh7824]

must admit, i respect her decision, Biomedical is a very promising career, she can even be rich doing that line of work, but instead she fuck the system by doing her passion.

[@rinne7244]

She care about passion not money since she still young can venture

[@benjaminwen1415]

A lot people mindset is go big or go home. thats fucking stupid. Things doesnt need to be go big or go home. Rather small and stable business, thats the best.

[@KeithLer]

The chicken wings looks yummy!

[@star42]

This coming from someone who works in the Bioscience industry in Australia....I would rather work at a hawker store too.

[@waykee33]

Without people like her, we would need more foreign workers or talents to do such jobs. I wonder if Singaporeans are fine with that then?

[@Zaza-ho5yy]

It's already happening.

[@jimw8615]

"And everything"

[@hwajames8214]

加油

[@musicscholars]

What's wrong with working from 6 to 3 instead of 9 to 5? Too many Singaporeans are overly sheltered and can't take alternative routes to survival. There are lots of graduates here in Australia who work as chefs and in other food businesses.

[@gzSING]

I don't understand the comments which the customers gave?? Like if I go to a food stall, I would just buy and go. Sometimes I just comment if the food is nice. ..I never thought someone would comment whether the store owner is too young, or too old, or too inexperienced... what sort of crap comments are those??? WTH. Seriously puzzled why anyone would give such comments?

[@mobyservices5080]

Those who comment that got degree don't go and do hawker lacks common sense. Hawker heritage is a tradition worth preserving and got nothing to do with degree. Moreover, you are encouraging the disappearing of SG food that you yourself are here for.

[@jag4064]

Just do whay you like. Avoid corporate world if you can.

[@happyskippy]

Sometimes it's better to be your own boss. You need to be your own boss to earn big money

[@MyrmidonWP]

[@lowbee379]

Where is this place.

[@kensei1984]
