'VIP apam balik seller' - Hannah Yeoh dishes up apam balik at Segambut Parliament Raya Open House, delights crowd
But at a recent event, she showed off a lesser-known talent — making apam balik!
Photographer Peter Chia captured a heartwarming moment at the Segambut Hari Raya Aidilfitri open house, where the Segambut MP was seen cheerfully serving freshly made apam balik to attendees.
'The VIP apam balik seller — YB Hannah Yeoh, our Youth and Sports Minister — at yesterday's Hari Raya open house in Segambut. You can see the endless stream of people waiting for her apam balik,' Peter wrote in his post.
In a 58-second video uploaded to his Facebook page, Hannah is seen flipping the crispy Malaysian pancake before carefully folding it and plating it for eager residents.
'I'm sorry, it's not very pretty, but it's still edible,' she could be heard saying as she handed over the dessert.
The video also showed a steady line of excited Malaysians patiently waiting for their turn to receive an apam balik — personally flipped and served by their MP.
Malaysian netizens were impressed by Hannah Yeoh's culinary effort, with many saying attendees were lucky to get a taste of the apam balik.
'Awesome, YB! So lucky to get to eat apam balik made by Hannah Yeoh herself,' commented Fineey Hai.
'Kudos for the effort, but please don't start selling them. Anyway, keep serving from the heart, our beloved YB!' added Masriah Dahlan.

Bangladesh pledges full cooperation in militant probe involving its nationals
KUALA LUMPUR: Bangladesh has pledged full cooperation with Malaysian authorities in investigations involving 36 of its nationals arrested in recent security operations for alleged links to a radical militant movement. Its Foreign Affairs Ministry, in a statement, said the government is closely monitoring developments, with the Bangladesh High Commission in Kuala Lumpur maintaining close communication with the relevant Malaysian authorities. "Bangladesh once again reiterates its firm stand against all forms of terrorism, violent extremism and militancy, and remains ready to extend full cooperation to the Malaysian authorities in this regard. "The Bangladesh High Commission will provide the necessary support to Bangladeshi expatriates wherever needed," it said. The ministry said the High Commission had immediately engaged with the Malaysian authorities and formally requested the identities of the individuals and further details regarding the allegations made against them. "Of the arrested or detained individuals, formal charges have been filed against five in Malaysian courts. The rest are currently under further investigation or facing deportation," it added. On June 27, Home Minister Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail said police had detained 36 Bangladeshi nationals who were found to be directly involved in a radical militant movement based on Islamic State (IS) extremist beliefs and violent ideology. He said the planned security operation, which began on April 24, was conducted in three phases across Selangor and Johor. "Of those detained, five have been charged under the Offences Relating to Terrorism (Chapter VIA) of the Penal Code in the Shah Alam and Johor Baru Sessions Courts. "Another 15 individuals have been issued deportation orders, while 16 remain under investigation for their involvement in the militant group," he said in a statement. Meanwhile, earlier today, Bukit Aman Special Branch director Datuk Ahmad Ramdzan Daud said the Bangladeshi Radical Militant Group (GMRB), which had been spreading extremist beliefs and ideology among Bangladeshi nationals in the country, has been successfully dismantled.
