An open letter to YB Lim Guan Eng, Chief Minister of Penang.

Saturday, March 29, 2008

Malaysiakini letter:

An open letter to YB Lim Guan Eng, Chief Minister of Penang.

Dear YB Lim,

On behalf of the blind in Penang, allow me to express our heartiest congratulations to you on your installation as our new chief minister. Dare we, the blind and other handicapped people of Penang look forward to a better life under the new state government of Penang where are true needs would be better attended to?

Please understand that caring for the blind is more than just making annual donations to the St. Nicholas Home for the Blind because the bulk of the blind (99.999 percent.) live outside of St. Nicholas and receive no help at all.

Apart from the meagre welfare allowance from the federal government which is not even sufficient to meet a quarter of their daily needs, they receive no help, no ang pow. No donations, no nothing. Allow us to present the following reasonable requests for the kind consideration of our new state government:

1. An additional welfare allowance of RM300 to all blind citizens born or residing in Penang who live on their own and who are unemployed. This allowance together with the federal allowance of RM300 will help all blind people and make it easier for them to make ends meet.
As you probably are unaware, 50 years after independence, the plight of the blind has not improved one iota both in terms of employment opportunities and in terms of their welfare. The bulk of the blind today have no steady income and the majority subsist on their meagre federal allowance. There are some who do not even have this.

2. Provide more employment opportunities both in the state government and in the various town councils. Erect more stalls so that the blind, with the help of their families, can earn a decent living. If I'm not mistaken, under the previous state government, only a few blind people were employed in the Penang Municipal Council and none at all in the state government.

3. To lighten their burden, the blind and the handicapped should be exempted from assessment rates. After all, if the previous council could spend millions of dollars on flowers and overseas trips, is it to much to ask for this small concession?

4. Free public transport for the handicap. In 1964, when the late CY Choy was the elected mayor of Penang, he wasted no time in granting free public transport for the blind on city council buses but alas, this privilege was ruthlessly taken away by none other than Koh Tsu Koon, your predecessor.

Free public transport for the blind is an international norm and Malaysia has the dubious distinction of being the only country where the blind have to pay. It wouldn't matter so much if the employment opportunities are good here. In Thailand and Singapore and virtually the world at large, even private companies give free bus transport for the blind - and ungrudgingly mind you. Does this not speak volumes for Malaysia being a unncaring society?

5. Get the various town councils to allocate funds to assist the blind and other handicapped people in the purchase of equipment which are specific to their needs such as braillers for the blind and wheel chairs for the the disabled. This is the practice in the developed West and Penang should follow suit.

Let Penang show the way so that the other states may emulate your good example and make the blind and handicapped feel that they, too, have a place under the malaysian sun. We have been hoping and praying for this day for a long time and may this new era bring hope to the mostmarginalised of the marginalised.

Show that you really care unlike the previous state government which only seemed to care for the wealthy and had little time for the downtrodden. We wish you well in your new endeavours.

SHE might be an elected representative of the state, but Rawang assemblyman Gan Pei Nei still prefers to keep it simple in every aspect of her life.

Apart from her new role, everything else remains the same. Transportation for her is still a Modenas Kriss 110cc motorcycle, a trusted companion that she's has had for the past four years.

“I prefer riding a motorcycle as it’s easier to manoeuvre through traffic jams and of course the view is always much better,” said Gan.

During the election, Gan, who used to live in Section 5, travelled daily on her motorcycle to give ceramahs.

“The only inconvenience is when it rains or there is lightning, otherwise it’s a pretty comfortable ride,” said Gan who currently resides in Rawang.

“But I personally feel that riding a motorcycle makes me more approachable to the people here,” said Gan.

The PKR candidate won the state seat with 10,467 votes against BN’s Goh Ai Ling who got 6,275 seats and independent candidate Chandrasegaran Arumugam who secured 704 votes.

She joined PKR in 2004 and headed the PKR service centre in Batu before being asked to set up a PKR branch in Rawang early this year.

StarMetro: How much time to do you spend on the computer?
Gan: Three hours each day.

StarMetro: What kind of music do you listen to? Name a favourite song?
Gan: Sentimental and Jazz, My favourite song is Come Away With Me by Norah Jones.

StarMetro: What do you read? What was the last book you read?.
Gan: Magazines especially the ones on political figures. The last book I read was Hilary to Riceby Yokiko Kishimoto.

StarMetro: How do you stay healthy?
Gan: I swim once a week at Universiti Malaya and play badminton once a week at Subang Jaya. Whenever I am free, I go for jungle trekking at Bukit Gasing.

StarMetro: What languages do you speak?
Gan: Mandarin, Cantonese, English and Bahasa Malaysia

StarMetro: What is the gadget you can’t do without?
Gan: My mobile since it links me to the people and I can surf the net too.

StarMetro: Do you have any pets?
Gan: Not at the moment since I don’t have the time. But I am thinking of getting a dog in the future.

StarMetro: Name a person you look up to and why?
Gan: It has to be Wan Azizah since she’s all about championing people’s right.

StarMetro: Favourite actor and why?
Gan: Stephen Chow because he is a funny actor and most of his movies have good social messages.

YB. Gan Pei Nei Visited ILTC on 25th March 2008

YB. Gan Pei Nei (Newly elected State Assemblyman for Rawang) pay a visit to Independent Living & Training Centre (ILTC) on 25th March 2008 at 9.45am.

ILTC members had a warmest welcomed her to the ILTC.

We had long hour of discussion with YB. regarding the future of ILTC progress and the facilities for the disabled and senior citizen and also sharing about a Caring Society when there are no proper caring towards disabled people in Selayang - Malaysia.

As known by everyone, wheelchair users in Kuala Lumpur and Selangor are still left out from the public transport system such as wheelchair friendly. There is no way to move around conveniently in Malaysia.

At the sametimes, we had an opportunity to highlight to YB. about various issues such as Public Transportation on RapidKL Buses, Social Welfare Department - the identification cards issued by the JKM department and other relevent issues that affecting the disabled basic fundamental rights.

YB. Gan promised to the ILTC members that, when there is any problem, she will look at it positively and resolve the matter quickly.

ILTC would like to expect from the State Assembly man Rawang in terms of accessibility to the built environment and other services provided by the local authorities barriers free and safety manner.

We also shared with YB. regarding the disabled act that was passed in the Parliment last year December 2007 the by law of the act.

We hope that the issues faced by disabled people with regards to the accessibility will be given more preference. The new state governments and local authorities have the means to resolve this matter if they are serious about it.

ILTC suggested to YB. Gan that, the disabled people must be involved in all levels of decision making process in the Council on matters that affect them. We hope that, the newly elected Assemblyman will focus seriously take note of the issues for new development and era.

SUN YOGA Training Programme at ILTC

ILTC members had an opportunity to a yoga session with a group of SUN YOGA Kuala Lumpur recently. The SUN YOGA group members spent a wonderful morning with the ILTC members and make the members to understand deeply in the yoga and also the disabled is not a barrier for the yoga training.

All of us enjoyed ourselves with yoga session and was a good experience for all of us.

Malaysiakini: FORM SPECIAL COUNCILS ON VULNERABLE GROUPS SAY PETPOSITIVE

Malaysiakini: FORM SPECIAL COUNCILS ON VULNERABLE GROUPS SAY PETPOSITIVE

The opposition-controlled state governments must form special councils to look into the needs of the disabled and elderly.

Petpositive president Anthony Thanasayan said the winds of change which swept across the 12th general election must also include vulnerable groups.

Speaking to Malaysiakini today, he said the new elected representatives from the opposition must not forget the disabled.

"While I am happy to see the formation of new state governments, I am also concerned that we (vulnerable groups) would be reduced to mere tokens again," added the 47-year-old wheelchair-bound activist.

He said the new leaders lacked the experience in working with vulnerable groups and therefore feedback on the many issues affecting them is vital.

Thanasayan said the council must include leaders from vulnerable groups in order for it to be effective.

"These new leaders must meet with us to familiarise themselves with our problems. We should be the first group that they meet," he added.

Significant changes needed Thanasayan also said that the disabled and elderly also want to see significant changes in these states.

Citing Petaling Jaya as an example, he stressed that the city must be made more accessible.

"Over the next five years, we would like to see significant changes. A total transformation, including access to local councils and the elected representatives," he added.

Thanasayan also suggested that a hotline be created to allow vulnerable groups to have direct contact with the elected representatives.

"These representatives must also visit us on a regular basis to collect our feedback on the issues affecting us," he said. One of their problems, Thanasayan pointed out, was healthcare.

"While treatment is free, more often than not, government hospitals do not have the medication we need and we are forced to buy them outside.

"These medication are expensive and something must be done about this like allowing us to make claims," he said. Apart from this, Thanasayan also called for all disabled parking lots to be made free of charge.

He also wants to seek an appointment with the new Selangor menteri besar to explain to him the

crucial role that animals play in assisting vulnerable groups.

"For example, MBPJ (Petaling Jaya City Council) does not give free dog licences. We also want to see the negative perception surrounding dogs change, especially in local councils and awareness on this must be inculcated," he said.

Sexuality & Fertility Symposium 2008

Sexuality & Fertility Symposium 2008

Symposium on Sexuality and Fertility for people with spinal cord injury 2008.

On 1st March 2008 (saturday) 15 ILTC members were invited to participate one day program of the Symposium on Sexuality and Fertility for people with spinal cord injury 2008 at Dewan Wawasan Cempaka, Menara PGRM, Kuala Lumpur.

The symposium was officated by YB. Dato' Seri Mohd Radzi Bin Sheikh Ahmad, The Minister of Home Affairs.

As we all know, the title says it all, sexuality and fertility. In our society, such topic can be quite a taboo that those with problems related to sexuality prefers to keep quiet. Instead of seeking treatment from the professionals and potentially get their sexual short-comings cured, they would rather keep it to themselves and silently suffers.

Persons with spinal cord injury are not spared from getting such problem. Damaged spinal cords are most certainly to be affected, as far as sexual ability is concerned, with Erectile Dysfunction and ultimately infertility being the two common cases.

It’s a matter that’s close to each and everyone of us that we seldom talk about even amongst the close ones.

In the event, we have the message experts in Dr Asiah Ibrahim, the Head of Rehabilitation Medicine HKL, Dr Nazirah Hasnan, the Rehabilitation Specialist from PPUM and Dr Loh Chit Sin, Consulting Urological Surgeon Gleanagles Intan Medical Centre amongst others has been contributed their line of expertise in getting to the bottom of our sexual woes.

Also, we are very honoured that the symposium was attend by Mr Shivjeet Singh Raghaw, from India as the main speaker. Mr Raghaw is a Peer Counselor from the Department of Rehabilitation at the Indian Spinal Injuries Center based in New Delhi.

Being a wheelchair-user himself, Mr Raghaw have share his expertise and knowledge on sexuality and fertility using his own method by what he terms it as ‘Holistic psycho-social rehabilitation approach’ towards disability living.

ILTC members who participate in this event have gain better understanding on a problem that’s been in us since we injured our spinal cord but was too ashamed to find any solutions to it.

Voicing out: A group of disabled people protesting

Independent Living & Training Centre, Malaysia looking towards more from the Malaysian Goverment.

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.

Thoughtless act: A car parked in a parking bay for the disabled

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.

Animal assisted therapy gaining in popularity

Animal assisted therapy gaining in popularity

By WANI MUTHIAH

THE Malaysian Animal-Assisted Therapy for the Disabled and Elderly Association (Petpositive) founder president Anthony Thanasayan’s only hope currently is to open a centre to cater to the needs of the disabled.

Anthony, who is pleased as punch that animal assisted therapy is gaining popularity among the disabled community, reckoned it is timely for the association to have its own centre.

“Quite a large number of the disabled come to Petpositive’s activities and I feel that we owe it to them to have a place for them to come to,’’ said Anthony.

He added Petpositive’s activities such as the jungle tracking event at the Forest Research Institute of Malaysia’s (FRIM) botanical gardens in October and the Deepavali party in early December last year received overwhelming response from the disabled community.


Time for a get together: Some of the guests who turned up for the Deepavali bash in Oct.

“Those who attended the FRIM outing included people in wheelchairs as well as the blind and deaf,’’ said Anthony adding that they were exposed to various animals including frogs.

According to him going by the reaction of the participants, animal assisted therapy was indeed something that could create a strong positive impact on the disabled.

He said this was also seen during Petpositive’s Deepavali party, which was sponsored by the Brickfields Hanuman Temple committee.

“The disabled were given a chance to ride a horse as well as a pony and it proved to be a memorable event for them as most spent their life confined at home,’’ said Anthony.

He said the efficacy of animal-assisted therapy for the disabled had been proven in many parts of the world.

However, Anthony’s only grouse is that dogs were more often regarded with scorn and disdain by some Malaysians and were not allowed to accompany their disabled owners to public places.

“Dogs are the best companions for the disabled and they can also be trained as service dogs,’’ said Anthony who has several service dogs himself.

He added that the service dogs trained to serve the disabled were very focused and cannot be distracted by anything.

“These dogs are trained to serve their disabled human companions since they were pups and that remains their only goal throughout their canine lives.


Here for you: Thanasayan's service dog Soolam who accompanies him everywhere.

“And so, even if they were out among the general public, they would not leave their owners’ side, let alone look at anyone else,’’ said Anthony.

He said it was also befuddling that the authorities found it to be alright to allow VCD sniffer dogs access to public places but did not accord the same to service dogs.

Anthony said these were also reasons as to why Petpositive urgently needed its own premises to allow the disabled access to animal assisted therapy as well as to provide them a place to bring their service dogs.

“We need a corner lot single storey house with a garden located in either Kuala Lumpur, Petaling Jaya or Klang for our centre and hope that some kind Samaritan would sponsor its monthly rental for us,’’ he said.

He added Petpositive also hoped that house owners who had unoccupied properties would allow the organisation the use of their premises.

“I hope 2008 would prove to be the year where Petpositive would be able to finally set-up its centre to help the disabled with animal-assisted thereby,’’ said Anthony.

Review of Mr. Murugan Disabled Trader

Review of Mr. Murugan Disabled Trader

EARNING a living is not easy these days, even more so when you are illiterate and disabled like Murugan Rajoo.

Having had no success at finding a job, Murugan decided to start his own business and sent two applications for a business licence to Selayang Municipal Council (MPS).

After two years had lapsed and still no response from the MPS, Murugan went ahead with his plan and began selling tidbits from his threewheel motorcycle outside Sekolah Rendah Kebangsaan Tamil Kuala Garing in Rawang.

He earns about RM30 a day to support his wife and four children, three of whom are studying.

However, his luck took a turn for the worse last year when his business was ‘crippled’ by an MPS operation to weed out illegal hawkers.

“There were a few other hawkers there but they managed to escape. He was not as lucky as he is an handicapped".

The offiers seized his motorcycle and the goods, leaving Murugan stranded by the roadside.

He then contacted President of the Independent Living and Training Centre (ILTC)

When we (ILTC members) reached the MPS branch in Rawang, we speak to the officer-incharge as we wanted to reclaim the seized items.

“The council staff were not only rude but humiliated us and violated our rights.

Blind passion

True love sees beyond the wheelchair.
WHEEL POWER by ANTHONY THANASAYAN

LIKE S. Jeyaraj from Rawang in Selangor, most of us can’t help but eagerly look forward to a new job experience.

Of course, there are all the initial jitters that one has to deal with.

Will your new boss be easy to work with? What about your colleagues? Will you be able to handle the added responsibilities before you?

Although these were all serious questions that Jeyaraj had to answer, the benefits, such as a better salary, far outweighed the worries for the then 27-year-old technician who took on his new position working on an assembly line in Singapore in November 2005.

However, little did he realise that his world would soon come crashing down on him – literally!

Jeyaraj, the youngest of five siblings, vividly remembers the deadly day in January last year.

“It was the third day of what was supposed to be a very good year for me. I was underneath an eight-ton crane mast to inspect it when it broke loose and fell on me, crushing my spine instantly,” he told me last week.

Jeyaraj was conscious and in excruciating pain throughout the ordeal.

Paramedics rushed him to the National University Hospital (NUH) within half an hour of the incident.

The doctors wasted no time in operating on him. But, only before cautioning him that he only had a 5% chance of getting back on his feet again.

“At that moment, I didn’t think of the 5% part. I just thought that the sooner the surgery was done on me, my chances of recovery would be better,” said Jeyaraj.

However, it did not take long for the young paralysed man to realise that the doctors’ prognosis of his condition had been horribly realised.

“Then, it got worse,” he said, adding that some doctors told him they thought he would be bedridden for the rest of his life.

Who knows? That might have been Jeyaraj’s future. But as fate would have it, he was transferred to Singapore’s Tan Tock Seng hospital (TTSH) two weeks after his surgery at NUH.

For the next three months the healthcare workers at TTSH, who included physiotherapists, rehabilitation experts and even a psychiatrist, helped Jeyaraj put his life back together again, piece by piece.

“I had to learn to do everything all over again,” he said. “They taught me how to sit up in bed, transfer myself to a wheelchair, use the bathroom and even how to climb stairs with my wheelchair.”

To climb stairs, Jeyaraj was taught to sit on the lowest step, then lift himself with the strength of his arms onto the next one with the help of his folded wheelchair by his side for support.

“I didn’t realise how life could change all so suddenly. I recall crying at night sometimes because I felt so weak and helpless and wasn’t ready for this kind of life,” he said.

“Carrying each of my paralysed legs made me feel like a weightlifter – except that I wasn’t in the Olympics and what was happening to me was real!”

Looking back, Jeyaraj said the experience was worth it all thanks to the TTSH staff. Training was from 8am until 5pm on weekdays and 8am to noon on Saturdays.

Although the healthcare workers never gave up on him, they were also very kind, he said.

He recalled an embarrassing incident during his training when an accident occurred in his pants.

“Rather than get angry with me or scold me, my therapist just smiled and took me back to the ward where I was cleaned up and brought back for training,” said Jeyaraj.

The rehabilitation was so thorough that the issue of sexuality was also addressed. I was shown a video on lovemaking where the male was someone in a wheelchair and his female partner was able-bodied.

Within eight months of his devastating accident, Jeyaraj did the impossible – he started to drive again.

Cupid paid him a surprise visit in December last year when he tied the knot with his able-bodied wife whom he has known since 2003.

“It was the best thing that I ever did,” he said.

“I not only have someone to look after me now but I also have someone whom I, too, can look after and love for the rest of my life,” Jeyaraj added.

The wheelchair-user, who is also a young and upcoming disabled activist, works part-time at the Independent Living and Training Centre – a self-help group for disabled persons in Rawang.

His daily responsibilities include sending and picking up his wife who works in Subang Jaya.

His Valentine Day message to all: Never give up on love, especially when it comes to loving yourself and reaching your potential.

Show Social Welfare ID to get 50% off on Rapid buses
By K. SUTHAKAR

PENANG: Effective Monday, senior citizens and the disabled registered with the Social Welfare Department need only show the identification cards issued by the department when travelling on Rapid Penang and RapidKL buses to get a 50% discount.

To reduce red tape, the Government has done away with the requirement for them to apply for the Rapid Card, issued by the companies.

“We want to simplify things. It is sufficient for them to show the card issued by the department to obtain the 50% ticket concession,” said Second Finance Minister Tan Sri Nor Mohamed Yakcop.

He was speaking to reporters at the St Nicholas’ Home here on Saturday.

Rapid Penang chief executive officer Azhar Ahmad, who was with him, said it takes about two weeks for the company to process each card application.

He said about 10,000 senior citizens and 400 disabled people travelled daily on Rapid Penang buses.

Nor Mohamed said the problems that prompted the one-day strike by Rapid Penang bus drivers last Monday had been resolved.

“It is a small problem. When there is a problem, we look at it positively and resolve the matter quickly,” he said.

Thousands of bus commuters rushing for work and last-minute Chinese New Year shopping were left stranded on Tuesday when the drivers brought transport to a standstill.
