Selangor: The perseverance of Norazlina Zakaria and Mohd Nazri Mohd Zain, a couple facing numerous hardships, has caught the attention of Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi, who has expressed commitment to offer assistance.
According to BERNAMA News Agency, in a Facebook post today, the UMNO president said that Selangor UMNO would assist Norazlina, 43, and Mohd Nazri, 40, with essential needs such as rent and providing better living conditions. Ahmad Zahid emphasized that efforts are actively being made to ensure their welfare is well taken care of.
The story of Norazlina and Mohd Nazri is one of perseverance and selfless sacrifice, as they face multiple challenges that require extraordinary patience. Ahmad Zahid noted that his political secretary Datuk Megat Zulkarnain Omardin, along with Selangor UMNO leadership, had visited the couple to better understand their situation.
Norazlina carries significant responsibilities, caring for her bedridden husband since early in their marriage, her 92-year-old grandmother who suffered a stroke, and an aunt with autism. Despite their own struggles, their home serves as a transit place for individuals with disabilities seeking treatment at Sungai Buloh Hospital.
Ahmad Zahid revealed plans to appeal to relevant authorities for quicker and more comprehensive healthcare for the couple, while encouraging the community to pray for their strength and blessings.
