#5 Women Empowerment: Sending the Indigenous Children Back to School, with Jason and Xin from The Asli Co.
In this episode, we have the founders of The Asli Co., Jason and Xin, who work closely with Orang Asli (the indigenous people). They are on their mission to improve the lives of Orang Asli in Malaysia. They are wishing to eradicate poverty through women empowerment and reducing school drop out rate among the children. The mission started when the couple found out the sad truth that over 50% of the indigenous children drop out of school because the families could not afford the school fees during their volunteering for the indigenous. They teach women skills such as sewing and handcrafting to make products, providing the women opportunities to earn education fees and some extra income. Now, the social enterprise works with four indigenous villages in Selangor, Malaysia. They have also trained 35 women in their education program. Check out their beautiful product range made by the indigenous mothers. The Asli Co.

#4 The Unseen Realities of Autism: The Challenges for the Autistic and Their Families, with Adli Yahya from Autism Cafe Project
In this episode, I have invited the Autism Cafe Project's director, Adli Yahya, to share his own experience as a father of autistic youth and how he started the project for his son. Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is one of the topics that I personally would like to bring out in my podcast. My experience living with my autistic cousin and interacting closely with other autistic children taught me that we have many misunderstanding and wrong perceptions of them. I am fortunate that I found the Autism Cafe Project and get the chance to connect with Adli to let him share his story. Autism Cafe Project established in 2016 with the mission to secure the future independence of youth with autism. Adli created Autism Cafe Project to provide a safe work environment for his son, Luqman and other autistic youth. Through the job opportunities, the autistic youth and their families earn some stable income. Meanwhile, the youth learn some living skills and technical skills. The social enterprise is also a platform for the public to better understand autism by volunteering with the project. With Adli's hard work, Autism Cafe Project has gained many attentions from various sectors. The social enterprise was active at SACC Mall, Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia, selling their homemade food and products. However, due to COVID-19 pandemic, the autistic youths cook at home and provide delivery service to their customers. Regardless of the social enterprise's challenges, the team is ambitious to open physical restaurants in multiple locations in Malaysia to assist more autistic youth after the end of the movement control in the country. They are now crowdfunding to set up a professional kitchen/Cafe for their youth to improve their food and service industry knowledge and skill. Also, to provide opportunities to more autistic youth. Check out the links to support them ;) Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Autismcafeproject Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/autismcafeproject/?hl=en Crowdfunding for the kitchen/Cafe expansion: https://www.simplygiving.com/appeal/autismcafe-kitchen

#3 Connect People with Wildlife: The Challenges of Wildlife Conservation in Malaysia, with Daniel Quilter from Fuze Ecoteer
In this episode, the managing director and co-founder of Fuze Ecoteer, Daniel Quilter, shares how his social enterprise connects people with wildlife and discusses wildlife conservation challenges in Malaysia. Fuze Ecoteer is a conservation social enterprise that organises wildlife volunteering programmes. With strong determination in protecting the biodiversity of Perhentian island, Daniel who comes from the United Kingdom started the social enterprise on Perhentian Island, Malaysia, in 2015. Perhentian is a beautiful island with incredible marine ecosystem and biodiversity. It is a well-known diving spot for international divers. However, tourism, climate change and plastic pollution have impacted the ecosystem badly. Fuze Ecoteer's projects based themselves in the local village on the island to conserve Perhentian Island's biodiversity. The projects include the Perhentian Turtle Project (PTP), Perhentian Eco Education Project (PEEP) and Perhentian Marine Research Station (PMRS). The projects work closely together in marine conservation, education and public awareness on the island. Living together with the island residents creates economic opportunity for the islanders and works closely with them in wildlife conservation. Fuze Ecoteer is also managing **Wildlife Rescue Centre **that based in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Besides volunteering programmes, Fuze Ecoteer is expanding their waste management programs to reduce plastic waste into the ocean. For years, Fuze Ecoteer has been part of Malaysia's circular economy, turning plastic waste from the island into merchandises to create a new revenue stream, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. Daniel has also initiated clean-up activities in the Selangor and Kuala Lumpur, such as river clean-up and park clean-up.
