In a video uploaded on her TikTok account @owenclairee, she said that pasar malam no longer feels like a true Malaysian night market.

“Malaysia is losing its culture. Pasar malam doesn’t feel like pasar malam anymore. Things are outrageously priced the same as in Jaya Grocer. Chocolate and cheesecake is slowly replacing karipap, shawarma is slowly replacing roti.”

The clip instantly gained traction, sparking discussions among Malaysians who agreed or disagreed with her take.
