PASIR GUDANG: Blood is thicker than water for Azura Tan, whose bond with her parents continues to be strong despite them practising different faiths. The 45-year-old bakery proprietor, who became a Muslim in June 2012, still takes care of her father Tan Boon Hock, 83, and mother Tan Sock Huay, 70. “We have no problems living under one roof despite all of us practising different faiths,’’ she said in an interview. The mother of three daughters, aged 16 to 23, converted to Islam after meeting her second husband, Pakistani Rafaqat Ali, 38, in 2011. “I remained a single mother for about 15 years, raising my three daughters before deciding to remarry after meeting my second husband,’’ she said.
