Living With Pain, Not In Pain

Janani Ravi | Omar bin Ismail | Dr Mary Cardosa

11-Jan-16 16:00

Living With Pain, Not In Pain

A girl who chronically skipped school and a man who rejected travel or heavy work. Both complained of unbearable pain. Pain that nobody could see and only those who suffer can understand. Pain that almost robbed the girl and man of their education, career and life. Dependent and dejected, they fell into depression. Then they learned to accept the pain, and rose as champions to face the world.

We follow Janani Ravi, Omar bin Ismail and their caretakers on a lifelong journey of living with pain, not in it. This documentary is brought to you in collaboration with Pfizer Malaysia.

Running a business built on local craft and grit is a cornerstone of Malaysian culture. But as the nation prepares for the massive influx of Visit Malaysia 2026, "passion" alone may no longer be enough to scale. While MSMEs represent 97% of all registered businesses and contribute 38% of the national GDP, many remain tethered to a cash-heavy past that limits their growth.
