With only a shack as shelter, the 60-year-old depends on his earnings as a beggar to feed himself and the dogs. “I would mix the biscuits with milk and my dogs and I will eat together. I fear that if I leave, the council will kill my dogs and bulldoze my shack. “They might as well kill me along with them,” he said, claiming that several officers from the Penang Island City Council (MBPP) had told him to leave. I rather not receive any aid if it is at the expense of my dogs,” he said, pleading with the council to let him and his dogs stay.
