A welfare department had to get to know me in a somewhat harsh and cynical way (proof of personhood). Yes, they are threatened by my "please cease leading Malaysia" because their citizens (like me) cannot have their happiness and monetary security fulfilled. I received a one-off piece of food aid, but let me also accept these in a cynical way, as they gave me all of this in a similarly cynical manner.
