Last Sunday, I followed Calvin to Beautiful Gate around 3.00pm, a home for the disables in SS2. We were there to pass some donated fire extingusher to them. They are mini fire distinguisher which are very portable. It is helpful for them as they can make a living out of it.
Calvin was explaining on how to use the fire extinguisher.
Really cool experience and an eye opener for me. This girl is 13 years old. Her name is Poon Bau Yee. Yes, she is on a wheelchair. She was so excited when I took out my camera to take her picture and started giving me her best post and smiles. Isn't she adorable?
Her favourite pass time is reading. They don't have much hobbies, mostly are readings. I asked her if she is studying, she told me that their teacher would come to teach them english, maths and mandrin. One teacher teaches all age group.
Khor Yah May is 20 years old. Told me that she has been staying in this disable home for the past 10 years. He family is living in Kuala Lumpur. She told me that her father could not take care of her because he is diagnosed with heart attack. I find her very friendly and they always joyfully smiling.
This man is very creative. You may find him selling his handiworks during the SS2 pasar malam (night market) on every Monday night.
Do you have sometime to spare with them? You don't need much, just skip your TV for 15 minutes and drop by to say "hi" to them. Not only your smile enlightens them but theirs too!
