ASASIpintar Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia student Mardhiatul Insyirah Mohd Hamadi said the initiative would benefit students who did not have a lot to spend on food.Fatimah Azzahra Mohammad Nizam, another ASASIpintar UKM student, said the menu would help her keep her spending within budget every month.
“So, this is a huge saving for me,” she said, adding that many of her friends would usually spend more on books and stationery so they often had to cut down on their food expenses.
