On Mar. 16, 2020, Malaysia's Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin announced a nationwide lockdown to prevent further spread of Covid-19.

Malaysians stuck in Singapore

In view of the movement control order (MCO), things went haywire on both sides of the Singapore-Malaysia border.

On Mar. 25, it was then announced that the MCO has extended to Apr. 14.

Malaysians working in Singapore and their employers sought to deal with the new situation.

This meant that some Malaysians were forced to stay in Singapore till the MCO has ended.

Feed his neighbour's dog

One Muhammad Faiz, who lives in Johor Bahru, uploaded a viral video on his Facebook page on Mar. 24.

In the caption, Faiz wrote that his neighbour is currently stuck in Singapore due to the MCO.

As a result, his dog is left alone in his JB property.

Faiz said that he decided to take responsibility.

He feeds the dog at least twice every day, since there's no one else who can look after it.

Seems like the dog is thankful for the free food.

"Last time, the dog couldn't even look me in the eye. Now, he absolutely loves me."

In the video, Faiz approaches his neighbour's house while carrying a container full of dog food.

He then shouts: "Come, let's eat...Eat up, okay?"

Praised for his kind deed

The video has garnered over 511,000 views as of the time of writing.

Other Malaysians praised Faiz for his kind deed.

Translation: "Well done, brother. You earn my respect."

Translation: "God bless you. Well done, brother. This guy is an example for all. Even though we can't touch dogs, we can still give them food like what this guy did."
