JAKARTA - The story of Rohana Abdullah (22 years old) is now viral in neighboring Malaysia. It is not a matter of the struggle of Indonesian women who applied for citizenship that has caught the attention of important Malaysian officials. Home Minister Datuk Seri Hamzah Zainudin and Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob.

In recent weeks, the story of a Muslim woman named Rohana Abdullah has become the talk of the town in Malaysia. Since he was a toddler, he has been abandoned by his mother who works as a PMI (Indonesian Migrant Worker) in the neighboring country. Luckily he was raised by Chee Hoi Lan (83) who raised him like his own child.

Now Rohana has grown into an adult girl. He and his adoptive mother Chee have applied for citizenship at the Malaysian Home Ministry, but have not yet received attention. This matter received attention from Home Minister Datuk Seri Hamzah Zainudin. He was deeply touched by Rohana's story.

Hamzah asked his staff to investigate Rohana's documents. Only then will he give a decision. “I was touched when I was informed of this matter last week and have instructed my officers to investigate the authenticity of the information provided first before making any decision,” he said on his Facebook page.

As previously gazetted by VOI, the story of Rohana who was brought up by Chinese descent very well has already caught the attention of many people. The reason is that Chee Hoi Lan, 83, who raised her since she was two months old, provided an education in accordance with the Islamic religion that Rohana embraced. It also provides halal food and beverages in accordance with Islamic law.

As reported by Harian Metro, it received a phone call from Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob asking about his story as reported by Harian Metro he had just received a phone call from an important Malaysian office. The Prime Minister also paid attention to this matter.

Citizens are also no less moved to read the story of Rohana who was raised by Chee. They were amazed by the generosity of Chee who nurtured and raised Rohana like her own child. After two important Malaysian offices paid attention to this matter, hopefully Rohana's affairs will be smoother. His desire to obtain Malaysian citizenship can be realized soon.
