Kota Kinabalu: Filipino street kids in town are using a new tactic to make money. 

Instead of outright begging, they have turned to selling snacks.

With crackers in hand, they now feel innocent in the eyes of law enforcement as their intention is to just make a living.

But if you reject their offer, they would quickly make the universal begging gesture, the outstretched palm up.

It is believed that the kids are part of a syndicate as a Dusun man in his 50’s claims regularly seeing a Honda car pick up the boys from the Gaya Street area.
