GEORGE TOWN: Being retrenched may be the best thing to have happened to former flight attendant Hana Batrisya Zainol, 24, and her husband. The couple started a nasi lemak business which they are now planning to take to the global stage.

With business picking up, the couple, who use between 40kg and 50kg of rice a day to make the delicacy, have seized the opportunity in bringing their nasi lemak overseas.
