First Raya without dad for Rohingya family in Ampang

Hasinah Mohammad Siddiq, 34, fled to Malaysia from Rakhine state in Myanmar 15 years ago.

This Hari Raya Aidilfitri will be the first that she and her four children mark without her husband, who died of high blood pressure and diabetes-related problems last year.

All that they own fits in this small house, made out of thin boards and covered with a zinc roof.

Hasinah's oldest daughter, Nur Aisyah Bibi Abdul Matalib, is 13 years old but has never attended school. Instead, she stays at home and takes care of her younger siblings.

Hasinah depends on Nur Aisyah to keep an eye on the other children while she does the housework.

Apart from cleaning the house, doing the laundry, and cooking, she also searches for edible plants that she can cook for her family to eat.

The plants that she finds form the bulk of her family's meagre diet.

Although they have next to no toys, there is more than enough to keep them occupied outside the house.

At lunch time, they share a plate of rice seasoned with salt. Anything else, such as an egg or two, is considered a luxury.

In the evening, the neighbours gather as a community to sit and chat.

In a village of Rohingya refugees, a van selling goods makes the rounds. It is the only place that most of the villagers have to buy their daily necessities.

A representative from a charitable foundation buys fish and other goods to distribute to families in the village.

Vegetables are also on the list of things to get.

The food that she gives to Hasinah and her family is the only means they will have of celebrating Hari Raya Aidilfitri this year.
