The initiative was the brainchild of the owner Lim Loong Hon or fondly known as Jeff Lim aimed at keeping the business going amidst the conditional movement control order (CMCO).

“My uncle who is the sole worker, wanted to close the shop because he was not getting any income from his tailoring business while struggling to pay for rental out of his own pocket.

“But then our family members sat down and thought of a solution to let the business continue operating — and that was when the idea of making handmade batik face masks came to mind,” Lim’s niece Agnes Aui told Malay Mail.

Various sizes and layers

She added that the face masks comes in two sizes and have three layers.

 
“Most of our friends and family members have purchased our face masks priced at RM10 each and the face masks have been selling like hotcakes.

“Batik designs have become trendy among Malaysians which was why we decided to have batik-themed face masks,” she said.
