Petaling Jaya’s toy library underutilised, says state rep


The Bayan Bestari toy library was set up to benefit families who cannot afford to buy many toys and books for their children.

DESPITE in use since the end of 2013, the Bayan Bestari toy library at the Petaling Jaya Community Library only sees an average of less than two visitors a day.

Bukit Gasing assemblyman Rajiv Rishyakaran said this was because many parents were not aware of the facility.
