If you work at Koufu, you are an employee at a non-aircon food court. Technically, you are not a hawker. In fact, the guy selling food at a canteen in a school or army camp is more of a hawker than you.
Without those customers' loyal support, the Tiongs and jiuhu folks working there can balik kampung. Kudos to the Koufu CEO for creating so many jobs for FTs.
