Beschreibungen

<p>Ten years ago, Liyana Dhamirah was in a precarious situation: at 22, she was heavily pregnant and had no place to call home.<br /><br />For Liyana, home was often unstable. Once a bright teenager full of optimism, she faced uncertainty and found no support from family, government agencies and welfare groups. She had nowhere to go, no one to turn to. When she started living on a beach in Sembawang, she discovered a community of people &mdash; families &mdash; who were homeless just like her. They stuck together and watched out for each other, even when there were raids.

Today she is a successful entrepreneur and this is her memoir.</p>
