Company's work with shoes for diabetics leads to expansion

AFTER successfully making a name for himself as the first Malaysian to manufacture shoes for diabetics, K. Loganathan, 62, is preparing to go big with other types of therapeutic footwear.

People with diabetes often face complications with their feet — an ulcer under the foot can develop in just a few hours. The main aim of therapeutic footwear for diabetics is to prevent diabetes-related complications, which can include strain, ulcers, calluses, or even amputations.
