The subject of this design is the bread produced by a long established bakery at  Jalan Transfer. In this sculpture, we see the hawker cutting off the crust, or `unwanted skin’ from a loaf of bread, and incidentally threatening his customer`s safety.

Roti Benggali is an unusual name for a loaf of white bread, but there is an interesting history to its origin. Originally, there was a British Malaya Bakery, but during the Second World War supplies of basics such as wheat flour became increasingly bakery disappeared at that time.
