NON-profit organisations Dialogue in the Dark (DID) and Save Ones Sight Missions Bhd (SOSM) are urging the Government to review the Persons with Disability Act 2008 to include access for guide dogs, especially in public areas.

Founder for both organisations, Stevens Tan, said they would be sending a letter to Women, Family and Community Development Minister Datuk Seri Rohani Abdul Karim to arrange for a dialogue to discuss the matter.
