My Story...by Steven Ch’ng

My name is Steven Ch’ng, and I am originally from Sabah. When I was 7 or 8, my mother passed away and my father brought my elder brother, my sister and me to stay with a relative in Ipoh, while he went to Penang to work. He also placed my younger brother who was 2 or 3 at the time, in a day care in Penang. My father would visit us for 2 or 3 days each month at the time.

In Ipoh, we were placed under the care of an uncle who was taking drugs at the time. My uncle wanted us to work as panhandlers, but we refused.
