4634. ADVICES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE. Hard work and long hours

ADVICES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE. How an immigrant couple succeed in food stall business in Potong Pasir, Singapore. Dr Sing Kong Yuen, BVMS (Glasgow)


SINGAPORE - 30 MAR 2023: Kimly Coffeeshop in Potong Pasir is a small eatery which has been renovated to provide a pleasant eating environment. It serves 12 stalls selling food like laksa and dim sum. Jia Jia Noodles stall is started by a young couple who are Chinese Nationals. Since my first visit and image of the stall in 2017, it is now a success food stall in a competitive environment as there are more food courts and hawker centres being set up regularly.

One reason for the success is hard work. This involves openig 24 hours 7 days a week is not for most local food stall operators. It is exhausting. But one must be present when food is needed by the heartlanders. In this case, long hours are important to succeed in intense competitive environment.

In countries like Australia, food courts may close early, but everyone does it. Here, there is no such regulations from the government.

Food quality must be present. The laksa was good for me. Hence I returned in 2022 and it was still good. I made this video to advise young people who wants to succeed. There is no substitute for hard work as more competitors open as the years go by. They don't work 8 hours a day in most cases.
