Chicken Farmer
Woman Entrepreneur

Hi, I’m Mesa Pheom, and I’m a 38 year old mother of two. My kids are studying at primary school in grades 1 and 2. I’m a housewife, and occasionally a rubber field labourer with my husband when I am free from household responsibilities. My husband is also a construction worker. He earns our family’s main income. Divided up, we only have about $0.86 to support each individual family member with per day. My business goal is to start up a chicken farm and develop it into a successful micro-enterprise. I hope to generate more income so that we can afford to build a new house, support my children’s education, and improve the quality of food our family consumes. In addition, we would love to improve the facilities at our home.
