Malaysian Pilot Dons Uniform While Selling Food At A Stall He Names “Kapten Corner”

Besides taking a toll on the aviation industry, the Covid-19 pandemic has also forced many airline crew to reskill or even take on jobs in other sectors. Malaysian pilot Captain Azrin Mohamad Zawawi, who now operates a food stall in Subang, is one such example.
