Paying respects to grandmother
Kota Kinabalu: Australian Foreign Minister and Senator Penny Wong (left) paying respects at the grave of paternal grandmother “Poh Poh” at the cemetery in Mile 5, Tuaran Road, on Thursday where she laid a wreath and said prayers.

 Penny has often spoken about her beloved “poh poh” who single-handedly brought up her children after World War II, and how she continues to draw strength and inspiration from her.
