PETALING JAYA: Disowned by his family after being found out as a homosexual and an atheist, a Malaysian student has somehow picked up the pieces of his shattered life and found a second chance in Canada.
Destitute and with no promise of future funding from his family, Hazim Ismail turned to fundraising page GoFundMe so he could continue his studies in psychology at the University of Winnipeg, and maintain his immigration status in Canada.
Hazim was financially supported by his mother until late last year when she found pictures of him and his friends at a gay bar in Winnipeg.
In her outrage, she pulled his funding, leaving Hazim to fend for himself in a foreign land.
