Comedian and radio presenter Ajak Shiro, whose real name is Mohd Hanafi Razak, shared the harrowing tale of his financial ruin and subsequent rise to become a successful entrepreneur. In the midst of his financial downfall, Ajak was forced to sell his home and car, pawn his wife Afifah's bracelet, and even remove his children from their private school before the end of the term.
This ordeal left him with a profound sense of failure, as he felt he had not provided his children with the best education possible. However, from this dark period, Ajak emerged with a valuable lesson in business caution. Before launching his latest venture, Bumbu Babah Warisan, he ensured to surround himself with experienced individuals who could help him achieve his goals.
Today, Ajak is the co-founder and primary owner of the Nasi Padang Bumbu Babah brand, which operates 60 outlets across Malaysia and has recently added 20 new dishes to its menu.
