In Malaysia still not handicapped-friendly enough for the disabled people. ILTC feel the 12th General Election will be held on March 8, 2008 it comes to addressing fullfil disabled's needs.

ILTC reminding the Government that there was "still a lot to do" for the handicapped."The Government should concentrate on providing more handicapped-friendly facilities in the public and private sectors, and providing incentives for the handicapped to excel in the job market,"

Stop gap: A wheelchairbound person faces difficulty getting on
board a KTM Komuter train without help as the gap between
the train and the platform is rather wide.

The Government should also focus on making public transport more handicapped-friendly."Public transport does not address the needs of the handicapped much, and many handicapped people find it difficult to travel to their workplaces.

We hope that the Plan, when translated into policies, will address the needs of the handicapped. We all want to contribute effectively to the realisation of Vision 2020.

Too often, parking places for the handicapped are taken by the able-bodied motorists. The Government must put a stop to this. There should be public education on the rights of the handicapped.
