PETALING JAYA: Raised poverty-stricken in a rubber estate with a father who was addicted to alcohol, Dr M. Miandy Munusamy had deemed his future doomed.
As a child, he believed his fate was sealed to remain at the estate in Pauh, Perlis, and carry out menial jobs for survival when he becomes an adult.
The 45-year-old, who is a principal assistant secretary of the strategic planning and international relations division of the Education Ministry, recounted how growing up in a hardcore poor family in the absence of fatherly guidance as a child left him directionless in life.“My father was an alcoholic and was in a drunken stupor every day. He never went to work till the day he died.
“I shared the good news with my mother but she told me to forget any plans to further my studies as she could not afford it.” he said, adding it was the same year his father passed away.
