Wai Wai and all her family were wrongfully arrested and became political prisoners. During those years in prison, she met and lived with many girls and women who were incarcerated for different reasons, most of which were crimes driven out of social injustice and extreme poverty. Seeing firsthand the challenges and realities of these women, she became convinced to change the country once freed. When she was finally freed at the age of 25, Wai Wai being a Rohingya herself decided to establish an educational institution for ethnic minorities. She believes that education has the unique power to open doors to freedom, peace and social equality and help build trust between people.
