It’s time society took care of its more vulnerable members.

THE Klang Valley is no place for a person with a disability. I see it all the time. Uneven, cracked and narrow pavements built beside busy roads choked with traffic. Three-storey shophouses with no lifts, just flights and flights of stairs. And fast-food joints that no wheelchair user can enter – with floors raised high above the five-foot-way and no ramp in sight.
