It's true. In Yemen, they only needed the basics for living. Flour, water, oil, salt, sugar, coffee, tea, wheat or rice grains. They only needed a truck for as long as it is able to function there's no need to keep changing it. Their handphones can be chipped cracked with lines and as long as they can call others there's no need to buy a new one. As long as their clothes are not outgrown they'll wear.
