Surin has seen children eating scrap collected from dustbins at the low-cost flats.

Social worker Elaine Surin is a witness to the level of suffering endured by PPR Taman Putra Damai Lembah Subang residents, especially the children.

She has seen children eating scrap from dustbins, children who stopped schooling because their parents could not afford the bus fare, and those whose parents are drug addicts.
