Beyond Borders: Voice of Asylum Seekers (Asif Ahmad)

Imagine showing up in a brand-new country with barely anything to your name—no friends, no spare change, and nowhere to sleep except for a cold bench in the local park. That’s exactly what happened to Zohaib Abbas Bangash when he arrived in New Zealand. It was rough. He spent long, freezing nights wondering how he’d ever make it through to the next day. But even at his lowest, Zohaib didn’t give up. Every day, he pushed forward just a little bit more, buoyed by his own determination and the kindness of complete strangers. Slowly but surely, he turned his life around—piece by piece. Fast forward to today, and he’s a thriving business owner, a well-loved community leader, and living proof that it’s possible to rise above your toughest challenges. What’s truly inspiring, though, is how he uses his own experiences to help others. After all he’s been through, Zohaib has made it his mission to support people who might be in the same place he once was—lost and trying to find their way. He’s living proof that compassion, hope, and a whole lot of tenacity can turn a bleak situation into something truly amazing. Here’s what you’ll feel watching this episode:
