Amran was orphaned when he was six years old. His parents passed away in a
tragic road accident when they went for a holiday. So, he grew up in Sinar Harapan
orphanage. He was always very diligent in his studies and household chores when he
was there. Everyone liked him.
He aspired to be a successful doctor. So, he worked hard. As he was diligent and
perseverant in his studies, he always attained excellent results in his examination. Soon,
the Social Welfare Department offered him a scholarship to pursue his higher studies. He
did not decline. He studied hard in the university and achieved excellence in all his
examinations.
Finally, he succeeded in becoming a doctor. As a doctor, Dr. Amran has never
forgotten he is an orphan who had gotten a lot of help from others. He wants to repay
others kindness. So, since he has established his own clinic, he gives free treatment to
the orphans and the poor people who cannot afford payment. Dr. Amran is a kind,
successful and considerate doctor.
