Mahma was born in 1953 in Ain Leuh. She never went to school when she was young but she learned how to weave thanks to her mother. Eight years ago, she joined the Ain Leuh Cooperative. She wants to support her husband in raising her only kid.
My name is Fatima Abbarao, born in 1967. I am married and have two children. I couldn't pursue my education, so I joined the cooperative to support myself and my family financially. I learned textile work from my mother.
