KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia -- This video is one that is incredibly close to Jenn Chia heart. Being Deaf for a day has made Jenn more aware of the world around her. It has opened up her mind to a new worldview. Video with English Subtitles.
Before this, Jenn have always deemed the Deaf as, for lack of a better word, incapable of many everyday activities. Yes, she was that stupid and uninitiated.
After this “experiment,” albeit only for a day, she learnt that apart from hearing, the Deaf can do anything a hearing person can... and more.
Without her sense of hearing, she found herself paying more attention when communicating with other people. She became more attentive to signs, cues, and nuances that could indicate what the other person is talking about.
In the making of this video, she realised how much taken words and communication for granted; and how a genuine smile could light up a room, transcending language and senses.
Thank you so much Grab Malaysia for giving her this opportunity to experience something so invaluable.
She want to thank the team as well for supporting her and realising this mini documentary with Jenn Chia. To know more about how you can support the initiative as well, visit website: https://grb.to/GFGSoimjenn.
