Polio victim recognised for his selfless community service

DESPITE the many challenges Khoo Teik Ee faces as a result of paralysis due to polio when he was just six months old, he has never wavered from fulfilling his responsibility towards the destitute elderly folk in Penang.

Khoo, 70, chairman of Grace Harmony Home, has been honoured for his dedication to the old folk’s home and also for his service as treasurer to Penang Christian Cemeteries Association (PCCA).
