There are times when 28-year-old B Muggnisuari goes for days without a meal, but that is not what hurts her the most. It’s the way her children are treated when they seek help from neighbours. “They were chased away,” the mother of five tells FMT, her voice quivering with heartbreak and disappointment.
“I have gone days without eating. I will feed my children but I won’t eat because I believe that feeding them is more important than feeding myself."
If they are lucky, Muggnisuari and her children, aged four to nine, will have plain rice to eat.
But, there were many days when they don’t have rice.
Her husband, who has been in and out of prison, is serving time for theft, leaving Muggnisuari to raise their children on her own.
Less than a week after the poverty-stricken family’s plight was highlighted, a whopping RM430,000 in donations has already been collected.
“It’s enough for the family to start a new life,” said Muggnisuari.
Amount Fundraised: RM 430,000
