Thousands of women and their families thronged the Caring Moms bazaar held at the canteen at SEGi University in Kota Damansara, Selangor, all day on March 26 in conjunction with the WOW – Women Do Wonders Talks and Bazaar helmed by Star Media Group and AirAsia. It was a hive of activity and people milled around, checking out items on sale at over 110 stalls, chatting and purchasing items to help support these small-business mothers in a big way.

Inside the auditorium, a group of formidable women took to the stage, enthralling a pre-registered crowd of 500 participants, mostly female but also with a number of men and a hearty bunch of gung-ho teenagers. Some had come from as far as Penang to attend the one-day event.
