What does receiving this money mean to you?
Receiving this money means buying my own land for a house for my children. I currently hire land for agriculture and living in a rented house, which's so expensive for me.
What is the happiest part of your day?
The happiest part of my day is at noon when I am resting from the morning daily activities.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship I have faced in my life is lacking my own land for agricultural activities. Hiring land is costly yet the agricultural output is unpredictable season after season.
