  "account": "Singaporean goalkeeper Hassan Sunny has closed his family's nasi padang stall Dapur Hassan after six years, but plans to continue the business in a different format. The 42-year-old believes manpower issues, not rent, forced the closure. Hassan's mother-in-law, who has been cooking the dishes, is now unable to continue and requires rest. While Hassan is considering pop-ups, bazaars, and Grab delivery to keep the business running, he has not yet decided on a permanent location. The stall gained international attention in June 2024 when Hassan's goalkeeping skills helped Singapore secure a draw against Thailand in a 2026 World Cup qualifier, advancing China to the next round. Despite the celebrity status, Hassan asked fans to stop sending money through the stall's QR code to avoid scam concerns.",
  "summary": "The goalkeeper said that manpower – not rent – was behind the closure, and he has been learning his mother-in-law's recipes to take over the cooking.",
