MGD of Kuala Lumpur, in his timely letter “Arrange discounts for seniors” (The Star, April 22), has highlighted the plight of retirees and senior citizens.
He said the rising cost of living is especially distressing to senior citizens who depend on their fast depleting life savings to survive and he suggested that Nascom, the umbrella body for senior citizens’ organisations, may be in a position to bring some relief to members of these affiliated organisations by negotiating with corporations to offer discounts to senior citizens in an effort to help them manage their meagre budgets.
