A Strong Heart is the truly inspiring journey of a young man from Pakistan who made Australia home and created an extraordinary life. While building a business empire and contributing to the development of the new nation of Timor-Leste and its people, his success has not been without challenges. But with a strong heart and the support of a loving family, Sakib Awan has shown resilience in the face of life's setbacks. What more could one hope to achieve in a lifetime?

Yours is a wonderful story that I know will inspire others." - Shane Stone AC, Chief Minister of the Northern Territory (1995-1999).
