From Colombo to São Paulo: Tuan Rushdi's mission to redefine what the blind can truly achieve

Tuan Rushdi

From reading street signs to checking our phones, vision shapes almost everything we take for granted. It's easy to forget how much of life relies on it, until it's gone. Those who navigate the world without sight do so with a combination of skill, patience, and resilience that most of us rarely recognise.

Tuan Rushdi is not a celebrity. He is not a public figure many would know. He is a representative of a community whose strength often goes unnoticed, someone whose life story offers a window into both the challenges and the possibilities of living and working without sight.
