Ep43: Redefining Refugee Cooking, with PichaEats

The refugee community in Malaysia is a largely unseen part of our society. But their plight and hardship is one that should be brought to light. Enter PichaEats. Since 2016, they've been working with refugees to uplift them through the medium of food. To date, PichaEats has partnered with 20 refugee families, helping them cater and sell their food to Malaysians, giving these refugees a source of income, and a better life. So on this week's show, we speak to the co-founder of PichaEats, Kim Lim, as well as one of their refugee chefs, Dalia Fahed, to learn more about how food can change lives.
