From humble roots to big dreams

Sky is the limit: Suzana has high hopes for her children, and Avy (left) is well on her way to achieving her dream.

KOTA KINABALU: Every morning, a mother in a small village nestled in Telupid about 200km from here, offers a quiet prayer that her seven children will live a life better than her own.

The mother, who wants to be known only as Suzana, 43, has spent the last three decades working alongside her husband on a modest oil palm plot.
