Volunteers with Malaysian charity GEMA have been redistributing food from Ramadan bazaars that might otherwise be wasted to low-income citizens during the holy month. As of April 14, 2023, GEMA says that it has recovered around 23 tonnes of food waste from about 55 operating Ramadan bazaars across the country.
