My 37 year old nephew is an autistic child too. He is rather weak in communicating with others and cannot get along with all his siblings. Armed with a Diploma could not get him any job. Tried some fast food restaurants and hotels but no success. Then, I hired him to put him into the Engineering tendering department. Initially, he was very reluctant to call suppliers to quote but I cannot take no as an answer. Fast forward 8 is handling the department very well. Can communicate very well with the suppliers too. Give them a chance and you be surprised what they can do for you.

He is a beautiful child. He is also fortunate to have you both, Nori & Khairy as his parents. Syabas to Khairy, Nori and child Timor.

Alhamdulillah.... No worry YB Khairy. My son too is autistic. But he is really special and creative. He speak good English....

[farihamohamedhilmy]

I have worked at We Rock The Spectrum part-time once and I am Nori and Khairy's niece. They are incredibly humble and very nice people. I learned so much about autism and how these kind of people behave. It was a really amazing experience! :D

Nori speaks very well. Educated and intelligent.
