“I could not continue with school. When father became ill, mother couldn’t afford my fees. I started working around home, mostly farming. But the crops hardly support my big family. It’s just something to get by. But I’ll be leaving for Malaysia soon. And I am happy. I am looking forward to do something that pays. Finally, I have hope that I will be able to support my family financially.”
