Businesswoman Jamaliah Sulaiman, 58, recently returned from a family holiday in Haatyai, Thailand, refreshed and in high spirits. The mother of four from Klang, Selangor, shared how she indulged in shopping, enjoyed a variety of foods, and picked up gifts for her five grandchildren.

“I’m glad I managed to save some money from my home business as a caterer and bouquet maker to make the trip to Thailand,” she said.
