BUKIT MERTAJAM, Feb 4: The plight of two Muslim converts here who had been living in poverty and surviving only on instant noodles caught the attention of two non-governmental organisations (NGOs) today
Abdul Rahman Lim, 56, and his 57-year-old brother, Abdul Rahim, a person with disabilities (PwD), have had to ration food that mostly consisted of instant noodles or crackers daily.
Abdul Rahman said since their story went viral on social media yesterday, he had been received calls from various parties who wanted to help.
“Thank you very much to those who have helped us. We are very grateful to everyone,” he told reporters when met at their house in Machang Bubok, near here, today.
