I READ with interest the story narrated by RK in “Consider a safety net” (The Star, March 14) and would like to share my story about a poverty-stricken family living in one of the low-cost flats near where I live.
Almost five years ago, an elderly woman rang my door bell to sell a comic book for RM5. She told me the much needed money was to allow her young daughter to see a doctor for her acute asthma.
