Malaysia’s movement control order（MCO）states
that only the "head of the household" should be allowed to leave the
house to purchase necessities, and although it didn’t state whether the person
should be male or female, the husbands probably took it upon themselves to
accomplish "mission grocery shopping".
馬來西亞的行動管制令（MCO）指出，只有「一家之主」被允許出門採購必需品，雖然管制令並未明說這個人應該是男性還是女性，但是丈夫們較有可能承擔這項「買東西任務」。
In hilarious posts shared by Malaysians
Cheanu Chew and Muzaffar Rahman on Facebook, they observed many men looking
clueless in supermarket aisles while glued to their phones. These "remote
shoppers", as Chew called them, were presumably receiving instructions
from their wives to ensure that they got the grocery list right.
馬來西亞人Cheanu Chew與Muzaffar
Rahman在「臉書」發布的一則滑稽貼文中指出，他們觀察到許多看起來毫無頭緒的男性，在超市走廊上黏著手機不放。被Chew稱為「遙控購物者」的人們，想必正在接收妻子的指示，確保他們買對採購清單上的物品。
Now, supermarket chain Tesco in Malaysia
has come to the rescue, with an ingenious hack to put all their troubles to
rest. The shopping guide "for husbands" provides pictures of basic
ingredients with captions, and also breaks it down to the nitty-gritty.
現在，馬來西亞的連鎖超市Tesco投入救援，巧妙地解決他們的麻煩。「給丈夫」的商品指南提供基本商品的圖片與名稱，並將其細分。
