Kota Kinabalu: Efandi Eldy Lim used to worry about putting food on the table for his wife and five children.
The 37-year-old did his best to provide for his poor family through jobs such as repairing and building village homes, besides a little farming, in Kampung Bokilong, Kota Belud, at the foothill of Mount Kinabalu in the Kadamaian constituency.
But these days he does not worry so much, thanks to a sustainable community development programme initiated by Hopes Malaysia, an NGO that has been helping four villages in the Kadamaian area, including Efandi’s, since 2016.
