In this episode we will be listening to an interview session with Mr Khairul Azri Mohamad Khalid, the co-founder and the head trainer of Discover Muay Thai also known as DMT. DMT is a social enterprise that echoes social impacts where youth from marginalised backgrounds undergo an intensive 4-month development program organised by Discover Muay Thai Academy. In this program, they will not only learn about the awesome Muay Thai techniques, but they will also learn fundamental values in life such as discipline, respect, self-confidence, resilience, leadership and care. The DMT graduates are no longer involved in social ills and they are now occupied with work, studies and Muay Thai tournaments.
