My Merdeka: Episode 1 - Sasibai Kimis

Enterprise presents a 5-part series showcasing entrepreneurs who have found their "Merdeka". In this series, we speak to entrepreneurs about their trials and tribulations, the battles they’ve faced, the blood and sweat, tears and of course money ... for their "My Merdeka" moment. On our first episode, we’re featuring Sasibai Kimis from Earth Heir. She shared how she went from working at the very top of the banking industry in New York to starting her own social entrepreneurship company Earth Heir, here in Malaysia - and in doing so, found her Merdeka moment.
