What kind of food is the Chinese food stall selling?

What is the rent for a stall there?

Rental cost for canteen stall cost few hundred dollars but electricity and water is free.

The thing is if business owner decided to retired due to old age, very hard to get new business owner cause they do not earn money from this business.

The current situation for smti canteen is left 2 stalls only. The uncle selling drinks and snacks and the muslim stall. The chinese, indian stalls etc owners have retire. Understand that although the rental is cheap but nobody want to open shop there. If the drinks and muslim stall close then i think the canteen can shut down. Who want to walk so far to engineer side canteen?

If cannot earn money then how to survive? Any new owner if want to depend on business for a living will need to earn money.. so maybe ask the uncle how much he can earn from the business so far and take home how much

lets not say about the muslim stall

the old chinese uncle at the drinks stall did mention the other stall owners have retired. and then we were told by the instructors about the stalls being put up for tender but just that nobody wants to set up at smti canteen although the rental is cheap. i think on the uncle perspective, most probably he have children to support him financially, but running the canteen stall maybe to him is to keep him active for retiring years, or to pass time, have something to do etc.

the canteen is kinda miserable now with only the drinks stall and muslim stall operating for food. gone were the days where trainees get their canteen breaks, crowded queues in the canteen and also the barber open etc. its quiet there now with only a few people and birds flying everywhere to pick up scraps of food and bird **** on the chairs and table and birds finding food in the pails.
