Teenager Anis Humairah Riduwan might have left school at age 15, but she hasn’t stopped learning. From her home in Lubok Merbau, a village not far from Kuala Kangsar, Perak, the 18-year-old has become the face of her family’s business on social media.
Anis helps to market the telekung (prayer shawls) that she and her mother sew by posting their products on Facebook and Instagram, and engaging their customers.
