#sambalpodcasts: Period Poverty- A Silent Struggle (ft. Annsley, Founder of Projek Gadis Mekar)

Tune in as we speak with Annsley Dashawna Stephen, Founder of Pertubuhan Projek Gadis Mekar Malaysia as we speak about period poverty struggles locally, pads or tampons and even about period pain simulators.
