A bapak selling nasi jinggo from the back of his bicycle has captured the attention and hearts of netizens around Bali.
A picture shared by citizen journalist site Info Denpasar shows the barefoot bapak selling the nasi on the side of a busy road.
The post accompanying the photo urges people passing Jl. Iman Bonjol and Jl. Raya Kuta to buy nasi from this man, explaining that he had a stroke and only has the use of one of his feet—he can only pedal the bike with his left leg.
He doesn’t wear sandals and given his condition is easily exhausted and must travel all the way to Monang-Maning, Denpasar, according to Info Denpasar.

Commenters have been showing compassion for the old man, urging others to help him out, sending him positive thoughts, and noting the awesomeness of his rice.
“I’ve bought it before… the nasi kuning was really delicious.”
“His nasi kuning is really good, the sambal too— help this bapak with some spare change friends.”
“I hope this bapak’s foot is okay soon and that he is blessed with a long life, amen.”
“Ready to help, if I meet him, I will give him change and will buy his nasi.”
“If I see him, I want to buy from him…”
