Sometimes making sacrifices for a living entails being away from our family and home.
For various causes, there are a great number of foreign nationals living in Malaysia alone.
A viral video circulating on Twitter of a nice guy known as Abe Bakar surprising a Nepali security guard with his favourite food has captured the attention of many.
Suka sangat content yang macamni. Dia tahu orang tu jauh & mesti rindu makanan tempatan dia pic.twitter.com/N9hWBQmIVj

The individual and his friend are known for creating content together as @mainterjah seemed to be at the guardhouse at the time.
He then approached the two guards on duty and asked one of them what food he hadn't eaten in a while and is presently craving.
One of the security guards said that it had been three years since he had eaten Nepali momo.
Well, for those who aren't familiar with Nepali Momo, it's a dumpling with a meat filling that is quite similar to dim sum.
The following video footage then shows Abe heading straight to the grocery store to get the ingredients and then demonstrating the entire cooking process.
Abe was seen bringing over the food the next day to hand it to the guard.
After tasting it, the guard praised the deliciousness of the food and did not think that it was cooked by himself and not bought.
The guard questioned whether Abe had bought it from a hotel in Nepal, but he had not. The guard, however, did not believe that it had been prepared by the man himself and had not been purchased.
Momo tu dumpling. Nepali hotel tu means nepali restaurant ke nepali eateries.

Since then, numerous online users have taken the opportunity to praise the men for making the security guards' day, and others have even expressed interest in buying the food out of curiosity.
At the time this was written, the video was reposted by @ricxxxkiddo and had garnered 246.7K views, 8,311 retweets and 15.4k likes on Twitter.
Wasn't that such a nice gesture? Maybe it's time we do something nice for the security guards in our buildings too.
