BUKIT MERTAJAM: For these road sweepers, they are indeed the “wira oren” (heroes in orange) for carrying out their work despite the stifling heat these days.
Their nickname, derived from the colour of their uniforms with the Seberang Prai City Council (MBSP), says much about these workers who slog under the hot sun from morning till late afternoon when the temperature could reach up to 37ºC.
