Not only is qian hongyan successful walaupaun without having both feet. if yesterday we already know the story of qian hongyan then this time we will hear the story of Farida Oeyono who is domiciled as citizens of Indonesia.

Farida Oeyono (47), who is familiarly called Afa only four years when the fever attacked him. That morning, when he woke up his little hot body cold. Weak legs Afa unable to walk. He is no longer agile play. Months just lying down.

VIRUS POLIO

Afa twisted her memory. In 1964, Pangkal Pinang, Bangka, his residence is not what it is today. At that time, health facilities are very minimal. In fact, as Afa recalled, there was only one doctor. Eventually parents take Afa to sinshe, given a cold medicine.

It is inconceivable that it turns out to be a polio virus. "We live in the village, so lack of health information. Parents think only a common cold, "said the fifth child of eight siblings pair Tjen Sui Ho and Harjanto Oeyono. Afa's parents work is a simple farmer and a traveling ice vendor. They are busy working every day to make ends meet. By sinshe also, Afa advised medication and treated at home. "Grandpa took care of me almost a year. Feet soaked warm water so that blood circulation smoothly. In the morning, I was invited to sunbathe in the sun. "Afa learned to walk again. He needs the help of someone else's hand to hold him running. The road was stunned. Step by step.

WANT TO SELF

1978. Graduated SMEA, Afa desperate to Jakarta following his koko, Muk Sak. Afa had applied for a tailor in a convection company. But having trouble with an electric sewing machine. Afa's right leg ached when stepping on the machine, lasting only 2 days. Then Afa threw herself to work on her cocoon. Muk Sak disagreed and asked Afa to stay in the village alone, taking his monthly money. Afa rebelled, he did not want to rely on submissions. He has to work. "Koko objected to my work. He did not have the heart, but could not resist. Because I said, if not accepted in his shop, I will look elsewhere. Finally I was accepted. "Afa did a lot of her cocoon operant work. From ordering, checking and taking care of delivery of goods. While Muk Sak expand business outside the city. All work in Jakarta, under Afa supervision. "Wow ... big responsibility. It's a challenge. I pray for God's strength. "Sometimes Afa has to do the job quickly. Labor is limited. Afa should be able to do the job like packing things and "running" to the warehouse counting the incoming goods.

When performing the task of "outside the table", people see the state of the foot Afa. This is the process of learning Afa to not be ashamed his condition is known to others. Almost all business friends are men.

DEVELOPING BUSINESS

The first building store owned by his cocoon is in Pasar Jembatan Merah. After nearly 17 years working on his cocoa work, Afa challenged to open his own business. Can it? The question always arises in the heart and Afa tries to push it away. Is not God's help? Doing things that never occurred to him.

So when the desire grows in his heart, Afa brings it to God. That longing is only stored in his heart. Just two years later Afa ventured to reveal it to one of the importers. "He is Ko Bun Ing, owner of Gunung Subur Iron Shop, Surabaya. Ko Bun Ing responded positively. In the past, first seen my legs, he said not to be embarrassed and insecure. "Afa was happy to get a sign to be independent. The next problem, how he conveyed his wishes to the koko. There is a feeling of uneasiness, but something must be tried. "Although a little worried, koko happy I want to fight. Cici also worries about my condition, what if people underestimate and deceive me. But eventually they took me off ... "

During work, Afa diligently saves. Save the money year after year. The savings that he used to pioneer the business in 1995. Plus Muk Sak gave him money services. Aah surprised when some importers called to congratulate on the brave step. Not only that. They also said they were ready to supply the items Afa needed. "Ko Bun Ing phone to another importer to help me. In fact he said he would back up if my business is nothing. "

HIS BEAUTIFUL DESIGN

Twelve years already, Afa had her own business. Seeding expectations within limitations. His hard work paid off. Afa bought and occupied 3 floors of Permata Kota shop in Tubagus Angke area, West Jakarta. This is where Afa is working. In addition to building shops in Jakarta, Afa also supplies in Sumatera, Jambi, Palembang, Lampung, and its birthplace, Bangka. "If you meet friends while in Bangka, they like to say, do not think the Fa, you can be like this ... I say this because of God's help."

Through his effort, Afa can travel to many countries. One of them traveled to the White House, WashingtonDC. Ah, I think it all. "In the White House I was really touched, when it came directly to the female police. He escorted, served full hospitality and provided a special path due to the condition of my feet. While in the elevator, unforgettable moments. My wheelchair stepped on the foot of the soldiers, eeh even he who repeatedly apologize. I should have apologized. In the West they are very much in favor of the disabled, "said the tennis lover. Meet many people, Afa is often asked about various things. From his physical limitations to his personal life.

"There is a direct question, how many children? I answered there were two, male and female. They are in the interior of Papua at Kasuari Beach. After helping them through World Vision, I was like having children. One time I want to meet them, "said Afa who is still single laugh. He is happy, grateful to help others get education. Afa is incorporated in Laetitia, a service provider for people with disabilities. "Whereas when I met a disabled person I often hide. How ya, "she recalled laughing freely. Afa's life proves that nothing is impossible for Him.
