Star Foundation comes to the aid of those having difficulty walking


Worthy cause: A beaming Lay Yean posing for the camera together with Liong (in red dress) and family members of the other recipients at the Star Foundation wheelchair presentation ceremony at the Star Northern Hub in Bayan Lepas, Penang.

GEORGE TOWN: Oon Lay Yean smiled as she settled comfortably into her brand new wheelchair, assisted by her husband and daughter.

The 60-year-old, who has diabetes, said the wheelchair will always be a reminder of the care her late nephew, Star Media Group telephonist Muhammad Haiqal Zikri Oon Abdullah (Oon Soon Eng), had al­ways showered on her.
