Aquarium Therapy Soon For The Poor In Petaling Jaya

PETPOSITIVE NEWSFLASH!

DATELINE PETALING JAYA:

THE MALAYSIAN ANIMAL-ASSISTED THERAPY FOR THE DISABLED AND ELDERLY ASSOCIATION or PETPOSITIVE has initiated plans with another non governmental organisation to provide aquarium therapy for residents in a low cost housing area in one of Petaling Jaya's poorest township.  

The fish tank will come with an in-built waterfall to provide positive therapy affirmation for disabled and elderly persons living in the flats.

It will also serve children living in the area.

PETPOSITIVE plans on getting the Petaling Jaya City Council or MBPJ to build a wheelchair-friendly access to the area.

There is also a need to build a disabled-friendly toilet for the handicapped residents through MBPJ's special project for the poor called "Sejati."

Petpositive's President Anthony Thanasayan who is also a MBPJ Councillor visited the area to study what exactly needs to be done in order to make the venue handicapped friendly.
