Amma spreads uplifting power of embrace

TEACHER Chuah Ghee Huat, 52, came an hour earlier to get a hug from Sri Mata Amritanandamayi Devi, or Amma as she is popularly known.

Although the event in Penang started at 7pm on Monday, Chuah and his wife S. Jothimani, who is also a teacher, were already at the SPICE Arena by 6pm and they stayed right until the next morning with the ‘hugging saint’.
