Inspirational Story: Visually Impaired Couple Strive To Make Their ‘Sambal Hitam’ A Success

Ever since this troublesome COVID-19 pandemic occurs in Malaysia, there have been so many Malaysians that have to face the negative consequences of the situation. Some of them are actually visually impaired couples who unfortunately have lost their job and also their source of income after the restaurant they worked at closed down. The couple is known as Yusri Azis and also his beloved wife that is Nur Jannah Tan Jia Hui.

Despite the challenges that they have to face because of the hardened situation, they do not even get discouraged but instead, they have set an example for having such great resilience and also resourcefulness in overcoming their own struggles in life. In order to change their lives, they have found a ray of hope to generate income by selling food on the Shopee e-commerce platform.

Yusri Azis and his wife stated they have launched their Shopee store that is named Yus Bisnes, with the help of a fellow Universiti Malaya coursemate that is Fa Phong in the first week of June and also promotes their store on the social site Facebook. Their most popular item is their homemade sambal hitam Pahang. According to Yusri Azis’s Facebook post on the 8th of June, he has successfully sold 1,000 packets of his sambal hitam.

He also recently made a video tutorial on how blind people can sell on Shopee using an app called TalkBack. Using the particular app, Yusri Azis is able to manage orders and answer questions from customers. He shared the video tutorial on Shopee Malaysia’s Facebook group hoping to inspire others to achieve their dreams, regardless of their circumstances or disabilities.

He also added that Shopee organizes an average of 50 online classes per month to train sellers on topics such as basic online selling techniques, marketing, handling logistics, and customer service online through its free Shopee University seller workshop to enable sellers to optimize their sales on the platform.
