It is understood that the incident happened at a well-known food stall in Jalan Chow Kit, Kuala Lumpur.
The car owner, who uploaded the photos on Facebook said that he will demand compensation for damages in addition to making a report to the local authority.
Following that, Twitter users criticised the actions of the business involved as using a public parking lot to do business is also an offence.

Another perspective, maybe the volume customer of the shop can’t fit inside the actual shop..maybe the sidewalk can be expended to compliment the shop with some condition/rental.. should priotise more pedestrian friendly than area just for car..
