“It’s not always about providing material things like money or gifts, what they value is time spent with them, sharing stories and doing things together,” she said.
The eldest in the family, Salina and her siblings have never celebrated Mother’s Day in a big way, but they show their appreciation for their mother in small gestures whenever possible.
“Every year, I wish her a happy Mother's Day and make sure she knows how thankful I am that she is my mother,” revealed Salina. She said that her mother Junaidah Md Rasol is like one of her best friends.
“She is one person I can talk to about anything. No matter how big or small the problems are, she always has the right advice to give,” she added. One of the most significant advice her mother has given was to be patient, no matter what problem or situation she was in.
“She has one of the most patient demeanours I’ve ever seen. Maybe she got that way balancing being the wife of a businessman, a mother and pursuing her own job,” said the 28-year-old who originates from Kuala Lumpur.
The other advice she gave Salina, which she took to heart, was to treat her mother-in-law Noraine Babjee, as if she were her own mother. This year, she will be celebrating Noraine’s birthday on Mother’s Day eve, May 8.
Salina feels like she has learnt a lot from her new mother, after getting married to Tariq Ghazali, five years ago. This is especially so after the birth of her daughter Malissa, two years ago.
“The most important thing for a working mother like me is to have the support of the family, and that’s what I get from my family — be it my husband, my mother or my parents in-law,” admitted Salina, who believes family always comes first.
As producer of enlightening talk show 1Konsumer, she spends a lot of time on shoots and in the studio, shedding light on current issues and concerns about consumerism to audiences on Bernama TV (Astro 502).
“When the responsibilities at work made it difficult for me to return home, it was my family who brought Malissa to the office, so I could breastfeed her during her vital months,” she revealed.
A big advocate of breastfeeding, Salina believes it is one of the reasons that children stay healthy and happy. Adopting the same principle with her daughter, she also believes that a balance of discipline and communication makes for a good parenting technique.
“Malissa is a little naughty sometimes but I don’t scold or hit her. I tell her how to correct the problem, and she does it readily,” said Salina, who enjoys reading to her daughter.
The former broadcast journalist turned producer believes she still has a lot to learn in life and is happy to take a few pointers from the mothers in her life.
“We can always learn something from their wisdom and experience. I feel lucky to have strong-minded women as mothers,” Salina concluded.

Di tepian simpang iniSaat kami berbaring di bawah bintang-bintang,
Kita tertanya-tanya siapa diri kita sebenarnya,
Aku ingin tahu apa yang kau lihat tentang diriku,
Adakah hanya luaran atau sesuatu dari dalam diriku.
Usaplah jari-jemarimu pada rambutku,
Tunjukkan padaku bahawa kau benar-benar peduli,
Hari demi hari, dan selamanya,
Ketika aku dan kau tidak mempunyai ketakutan.
Saat kau katakan kau menyangiku,
Saat itulah aku memberikan kunci,
Untuk hati, jiwa dan fikiranku,
Aku senang untuk tahu bahawa kau bahawa
Aku sebenarnya.............
