Summary and headline written by AI from the source article. How we work
Zaim Zazami Ibrahim and his wife, Kartini Ahmad, receive help from their four-year-old daughter at their dessert stall in Cyberjaya, Malaysia.
Zaim became partially paralysed after a road accident in 2006 and the couple started the food business after their tailoring shop struggled during the pandemic. They operate at the TSI Sports Arena and Lorong Belakang Cyberjaya night markets, and Zaim hopes his daughter will learn resilience and gratitude from helping them.
He attended the Industrial Training and Rehabilitation Centre in Bangi after his accident, where he met Kartini, and credits the experience with helping him find purpose. Kartini noted that customers often show generosity beyond simply purchasing desserts, with some donating money for the couple to offer treats to others. The family intends to grow their business into a central kitchen with multiple locations, creating employment opportunities for others.
Zaim feels emotional seeing his daughter work so late, wishing she could have a more typical childhood, but believes the experience will benefit her in the long run.
