GEORGE TOWN: Fifteen years ago, a set of triplets nearly had to be given up for adoption from the day they were born as their parents were too poor to raise three babies then.
But the Woo triplets are still together as a family now, thanks to Malaysians who generously pitched in to help with their expenses. Their Indonesian mother, who is identified only as Ely, said she feels immense gratitude to those who contributed to the fund for her children.
Uh-oh! Daily quota reached.
