I felt responsible for providing financial sup- port to my foster father and my younger brother, so I needed to earn money as soon as possible. My family was so poor, and my foster father was also sick and in need of medication which we were struggling to af- ford, so I was forced to finish school and start work. I tried working in other jobs first, but I faced too many problems. For example, when I worked in a restaurant, they told me that with a face like mine, I could only work at the back of the restaurant and only deserved five ringgit a day whilst the other workers were earning 50 ringgit a day. I did not want to continue living with this injustice so I de- cided it would be better
