Adli Yahya's love project for son with autism


Adli (left) and his 19-year-old son Luqman may not have had a good father-son relationship in the early years but now, they are very close.

Adli Yahya was in denial for the longest time. The 54-year-old father of six recalls, sadly, the time he refused to accept the fact that his son Luqman has autism.

“I treated him so badly that, in the end, he became so scared of me. The sight of me put him in panic mode,” shares the Kelantan-born, admitting this caused a rift between him and his son, who was diagnosed with autism when he was barely two years old.
