Wheelchairs Important For Mobility Impaired

Anthony Siva Balan Thanasayan

GIVING AWAY wheelchairs for the needy is one of the best things one can do for those who can't walk, especially when struck with a sudden disability like stroke or heart attacks. 

 

Here is a picture of YB Haniza Talha and I, in her office in Taman Medan, donating a wheelchair to a poor couple - the husband of which needed a wheelchair. 

 

Local councils must continue doing this to help greater mobility for the physically impaired.

PETPOSITIVE NEWSFLASH!

DATELINE TAMAN MEDAN PETALING JAYA:

ABOUT 80 PERSONS turned up at the launch this morning of a disabled-friendly car park and ramp here. It was built by the Petaling Jaya City Council (MBPJ) for access to the service centre of State Assemblyperson Haniza Talha.

The project which began in October of last year was finally finished last week. A lot of details had gone into the ramp to make it fully disabled-friendly.

The event was launched by Selangor State Exco Rodziah Ismail. Head of MBPJ planning Sharipah Marhaini attended the occasion. Many of them included disabled people around the area.

The ramp and special car park is believed to be the only one of its kind made in a state assemblyperson's office. 

More on this soon.
