Her late father’s last words stayed in her mind as PhD student Norhidayu Hasan picked herself up from depression and continued with her studies.

“Knowledge is everywhere; don’t ever feel tired or bored in your quest for knowledge,” he told her before passing in 2019 – during the first year of her studies. The 29-year-old from Pahang was especially close to her father, and she went through a bout of depression that lasted three months after he died from heart failure.

"My father passed away so suddenly. I lost my will to continue , and I almost gave up. Losing my father was as if I lost my wings, hands, and feet. I felt so stressed and I cried every day," Norhidayu said.On Tuesday , she graduated from her PhD course in Language and Malay Linguistics at University Putra Malaysia .
