QI & ESG Home
9 years old Mohamad Zulhakeemy Ihsan Bin Md Anwar aka Kenken from Papar is diagnosed with stage 4 brain cancer – Potine Glioma.
He was recently released from Hospital Likas (Wanita Dan Kanak-kanak Sabah) after completing his 30 sessions radiotherapy. Unfortunately, he showed no signs of improvement. The hospital discharged him and he went home at home to be near to his family.
One of KenKen's wishes is to have a family vacation in a resort.
An NGO Chairlady Ms Rujilin reached out to us in a form of sponsoring a Tanjung Deluxe Suite – closest to the pool for KenKen and his siblings, all meals and sunset cruise for the family of 5. We gave them a ground floor suite so that it's more convenient for KenKen who is bound to a wheelchair.
The family stayed for 2 days, checking in on the 10th Jan.
During check-out, Kenken's parents sincerely thanked the Management and all TAH colleagues for making their family's holiday a memorable one and for making one of KenKen's wishes come true.
