The Foundation's team of Counsellors(Molly, Ng, Muthu & James) met the 13-year-old girl to hear her side of the story. All went well with laughters and warm pleasantries exchanges all round after the counselling sessions. Molly & Muthu were the main counsellors during the session with Ng & James at the side lines. We shall see how the follow-up sessions evolve.
