In Humans of KL

“Social workers actually do get paid, most people think we do it for free. And we do have to study for it. I took a Masters in Social Work in the United States, before working in a hospital in Singapore dealing with patients that had neurological problems – and finally back in Malaysia. We don’t have a medical background, but we do have a big heart. Social workers might seem like a nurse…but not really, as we can work in prisons, welfare homes, and NGOs as well. And its not as recognized here as it is abroad. There should be more opportunities for Malaysians to be as such.”
