For designer N. Devi Sarla, family is all about having a sense of belonging, trust and unconditional love. The 43-year-old from Klang, Selangor, reveals that her family doesn’t just consist of her mum and dad, brother, sister, and two adopted brothers. A major part of her family are her three furkids: two dogs and a cat.
