Fighting for right to get a good education


I WOULD like to share a short story about six-year-old Jonah Michio Tan who is fighting for the right to an education.

Born with a rare form of skeletal dysplasia (genetic disorders that affect bones and joints and hinder children’s growth and development), Jonah, who lives in Petaling Jaya, is always full of life! He is always smiling, happy, thoughtful and well-mannered, besides being a great brother to four-year-old Jamian.
