KOTA KINABALU: Tidak terkira berapa ramai yang terjejas sejak perintah kawalan pergerakan (PKP) dilaksanakan pada Mac, termasuklah mereka yang bekerja di sektor penerbangan.

Helen Leong Siau Phing, 20, seorang bekas pramugari Malaysia Airlines (MAS), antara mereka yang diberhentikan selepas PKP memberi tamparan hebat kepada industri itu.

Bagi Helen, apa yang diusahakan kini, demi menyara diri, jauh berbeza dengan hari-hari beliau terbang di awan biru dengan pakaian seragam MAS.

Beliau tekad mencuba nasib dengan menjual kuih hinompuka, sejenis pulut tradisional Kadazan yang dibungkus dengan daun pisang, selain mengusahakan produk kesihatan dalam talian selepas dibuang bekerja pada Ogos lalu.



“Saya tahu sesetengah orang mungkin anggap ‘tiada rezeki’ tetapi saya tak ada masalah, saya tak malu pun,” katanya kepada FMT.

“Sudah tentu sudah tak glamor macam apa saya buat dulu tapi apa nak dimalukan. Saya sebenarnya sudah biasa jual hinompuka, sejak di bangku sekolah lagi, tolong ibu buat dan hantar ke kedai-kedai. Saya sudah biasa hidup susah dan berdikari.”


Helen Leong bergaya bersama pesawat Malaysia Airlines.
Helen akui ada orang memandang rendah, namun wanita ini tak kisah sebab “saya tak perlu bandingkan diri saya dengan orang lain”.

“Semua orang cuba bertahan dan setiap kita ini ada jalan dan nasib masing-masing. Lagipun, apa salahnya jual hinompuka?” soalnya.

Bekas ratu cantik ini, bagaimanapun, akui sangat kecewa apabila mendapat tahu beliau hilang pekerjaan itu, yang disertainya selepas tamat persekolahan.

Helen berkhidmat sebagai pramugari pada 2018 selepas Malaysia Airlines memilihnya dan beberapa peserta lain dari pertandingan ratu cantik Unduk Ngadau – kemuncak Pesta Kaamatan – untuk temuduga.

Tahun itu penuh makna bagi wanita berketurunan Sino Kadazan dari Penampang ini: Beliau layak ke pusingan akhir pertandingan ratu cantik peringkat daerah dan kemudian bekerja dengan syarikat penerbangan nasional.

“Saya bersyukur atas peluang itu dan pengalaman itu memang menyeronokkan, tapi sayangnya, industri terjejas selepas PKP dilaksanakan dan saya tidak terbang bermula April lalu.


Sekotak hinompuka yang sedia untuk dijual.
“Situasi bertambah buruk dan akhirnya saya dilepaskan pada 14 Ogos, yang kebetulan ulang tahun kelahiran saya. Boleh awak bayangkan macam mana perasaan saya waktu itu?

“Kita sudah dimaklumkan sebulan awal mengenai keputusan itu dan saya sangka saya sudah bersedia menghadapinya. Tapi bila tiba hari itu, saya betul-betul terasa dan sedikit beremosi.”

Katanya, perkara itu sudah berlalu dan anak bongsu daripada 5 beradik itu hanya memikirkan masa depan.

Helen baru-baru ini bertunang dan menolong keluarga tunangnya menjaga sebuah rumah inap di Ranau.

Beliau tekad mahu meneruskan perniagaan hinompuka sebaik sahaja pulang ke Penampang selepas kawalan perjalanan antara daerah ditarik semula.

“Saya belum pasti apa yang saya mahu buat sekarang. Saya akan tangani apa sahaja yang datang. Tapi saya rasa saya mahu terus berniaga sebab minat,” katanya

Community service

Tak la cantik sangat sangat, tapi manis mata memandang. Most important is, she is very down to earth. Jual kuih, or even if jual ayam panggang tepi jalan, it is still called work to earn money for living, no sin, nothing to be shy of, no such thing as low standard or not, only those wif high ego look down on this kind of hard living people.
Songlap is more low standard kind, muka tebal and taking pipu money against their will. Asyik menongkat duit rakyat.

Stewardess is basically high class waiter in the air..

They aren't actually much requirement to be a stewardess hence what is the shock factor when they do low class job??

The real shock factor is when a highly educated .... bright future fella lose their job to do low class job..

for example ... physicist selling kuih or doctor selling kuih...

i haven try that kuih yet

Is she part Kadazan as well?

Family background and BF kaya, so is fine

I only know Helena Chong and red sofa

Kalau buat FL 20k in no time

i still havent got full suite

fuark

so u mean being a prostitute is berry ez dat y u need to be shy of and sin?

Actually how many staff terminated by MAS?

Yeah good.

Tak cantik sangat? Aiyo apa ini komen. Nice loook lo.

Not everyone want and like to earn from this kind of business la.

Lulz! I forgot to mentioned as long as legal n halal certified by pas.

Nasi lemak got?

Meanwhile lurkingisgood omg omg no job job.
See ppl got lubang do something else.

Rich people pretent to be struggling...

What is FL ?

With red bra hnnghhh

looks like lepat ubi

Kenapa tak jual badan? 500 per shot also ok

Its not about requirement.....its about the nature of the job.......Will a waiter perform CPR and knowledge to operate an AED in medical emergencies? How many waiter will do that?




A low class job.....there is no such thing.........What the article is pointing out is her spirit to live and strive to earn a livelihood...which you seems to take for granted.




A physicist selling kuih also not that shocking cause i know a PHD Lecturer In Malaysia doing side business selling anchovies.


Everybody is doing something to live or to survive........

aint we all a whore, we all are just selling different parts of ourselves

why sell kueh? onlyfans kan ada

Ok la. At least she didn’t try to scam water fish.

Side business is side business....

the real shocker is when someone overqualified losing their jobs and force to do jobs that does not require any qualification

for air stewardess, they are not overqualified because their job is basically just a high class waiter...

She's talking selling pastries AFTER engaged to be married to a guy with property.

Looks like CoViD-19 helped her decide to be a wife

Helenness Chong Yoke Yin ... say Helen Chong, so many in Malaysia.

Helenness ... there can be only one

She is earning more from kuih

Why sell kuih? Kan a lot of waterfish, i mean man with class.

She got sell sofa?

I see news of people earning honest living.

So what is TS trying to hint at?

Got impropriety?

Way honest than politicians and TS.

A job is a job....There is no high or low class....dont look down on people just because you have the privileged.

there are no such thing as a high class or low class job
a job is ultimately a job only...to put food on the table and to afford a car and a house if able to

the word "overqualified" is usually being used by stupid boss only
if you're workers...people here always wonder WTF is overqualified

Kuih Nyonya

Kawin sama Saya saja bah

soon she will realise she can earn more selling kuih

Manis like this will get marriage proposal soon...

She is responding to some comment in fb post (the star posting about the story)

Name daughter Helen sure she have korek emas skill, gooding looking and good at piaping. Daddy sure nafas lega daughter in good hands.

search in fb, easy find.

Hi class waiter in Michelin star restaurant got do life vest demo, perform cpr, handle dificult passengers (kids, old pipul, etc), bomb or terorist threat, a fire or tech error on flight, assist with emergency evacuations, sometimes flying on red eye flights & die wen planes crashes or burns in air?

High class bla bla low class blah blah bullshit

Judgemental fucks

If you put it that way... then why is some air stewardess selling kuih is news worthy?

hundreds of people lose their job everyday... you don't see the news cover office boy or some low rank sales/marketing officer selling kuih is news worthy do you??

it is always those high class jobs like pilot, doctor, lawyer, CEO etc. selling kuih become news worthy


the thing is.... air stewardess are being look upon as such... which is ridiculous cause you don't need much to be an air stewardess apart from not being overweight... or out of shape.... the rest make up can handle...
