The Malaysian Artistes Association (Karyawan) has stepped in to assist singer Mama Rina, whose real name is Hairini Abdul Halim, to ensure she receives proper follow-up treatment, including the fitting of a prosthetic leg.

The 63-year-old former Akademi Fantasia Season Six contestant is now wheelchair-bound after her right leg was amputated below the knee in early January due to complications from diabetes.
