殘健一家．輝煌五十
殘友種大紅花迎國慶
（八打靈再也訊）為迎接50年金禧國慶，逾50名殘障人士親手在SS2城市公園裁種大紅花，除了表達殘障人士的愛國心，同時藉此希望能發揮美化環境效用。
這項《殘健一家，輝煌五十》殘友栽種活動是由美門殘障關懷基金會聯合八打靈再也市政廳、SS2B睦鄰小組、大馬盲人協會及D'serve Quality Network聯辦。
50名殘障朋友在50名義工的協助下，順利栽種50棵大紅花。此活動的宗旨是要促進公眾對殘障群體的認識、對殘障群體在社會上的地位與貢獻作出認可，和讓公眾瞭解殘障群體在為國家效勞之時所面對的阻礙與窘境。
八打靈工商會署理會長鄭起展在栽種儀式上移交1200令吉的支票給美門殘障關懷基金會；八打靈再也北區國會議員服務中心也撥款5000令吉給該基金會。
周美芬：讓殘障人融入社會
八打靈再也北區國會議員拿汀巴杜卡周美芬主持開幕禮時表示，這項活動非常有意義，能夠讓殘障人士融入社會，不會脫離人群。
“美門殘障關懷基金會能讓大家學習如何珍惜生命、更瞭解殘障人士的需要。與此同時，殘障人士本身也應該自動去爭取各自的權力。”
“在邁向另一個50年的開始，期望可以看到無障礙空間的落實。無論是在公共交通方面、教育與就業領域方面、建築物內外和街道方面，都不再存有任何的障礙。”
與此同時，美門殘障關懷基金會謝秀貞強調，該會裡的殘障人士都是一家人，大家都得相互依賴。
60兒童參加繪畫賽
兒童繪畫比賽、娛興表演及義賣也在週日（8月19日）的栽種儀式裡進行。約有60名兒童報名參加繪畫比賽，共分為3組。
謝秀貞說，兒童繪畫比賽的宗旨是要栽培兒童們關懷殘障人士的精神。
當天的出席者來自各個不同殘障團體的殘障朋友，包括雙福殘障協會、馬來西亞華人殘障協會、巴生肢體殘障協會、大馬盲人協會、馬來西亞脊椎骨損傷協會、達邁殘障協會、Perwira K9特殊人士協會等。 （星洲日報/大都會•2007.08.20）

PJ UTARA MP Datin Paduka Chew Mei Fun has stepped forward in aid of the disabled hawkers at the SS2, Petaling Jaya morning market.
At the request of Petaling Jaya Hawkers and Small Traders Association secretary Kok Kuan Yong, Chew has generously sponsored two canopies and two commercial umbrellas worth RM706 for the usage of the disabled.
Since last month, the disabled have been occupying five stalls at the market, selling newspapers, groceries, plants, and donated items such as glassware and soft toys.
According to Chew, the Petaling Jaya City Council (MBPJ) has made it compulsory for the hawkers to use umbrellas bearing MBPJ logos.
“However, with their small profits, they couldn't afford to purchase the umbrellas,” said Chew.
Chew urged MBPJ to allocate at least five per cent of the units in the markets for the disabled.
“The government has always encouraged the disabled to be independent by working to support themselves,” said Chew.
Beautiful Gate Foundation for the Disabled executive director Pastor Sia Siew Chin welcomed the public's contribution of reusable items.
Part of the proceeds from their business in the market goes to the foundation.
Glad to assist: Chew (standing, third from right) handing over an umbrella to Sia (in wheelchair). Looking on is Kok (standing, third from left).

靈殘障小販獲陽傘帳篷
由周美芬捐出
（八打靈再也訊）八打靈北區國會議員拿汀巴杜卡周美芬週五（17日）在SS2區早市巴剎移交3把陽傘及2個帳篷給殘障小販。
八打靈再也市政廳限定每名在SS2早市營業的小販購買陽傘。由於殘障小販都無能力購買陽傘，所以之前暫時借用舊的陽傘。
在八打靈再也小販商業公會總務郭鈞洋的告知下，周美芬捐出706令吉的陽傘給予殘障小販。
該早市有5個由殘障小販經營的檔口，其中3個檔主是“美門殘障關懷基金會”的會員。
周美芬表示，殘障小販每人只能賺取200令吉左右，購買陽傘對他們而言是個負擔。
殘障小販盼獲繼營生
“這些殘障小販只獲得8至12月的暫時營業執照，希望市政廳以後能夠讓他們繼續在固定的地點做生意，以便協助他們面對人群，提升做生意的技巧及學習獨立。”
她補充說，市政廳應計劃一項政策，保留5%讓商業名額給殘障人士，以鼓勵多點殘障人士出來學習做生意。 （星洲日報/大都會•2007.08.17）

A boost for the disabled
By THO XIN YI
FOR Bathmavathi Krishnan, being disabled does not stop her from participating in sports.
A former athlete in school, her world was shattered when she met with an accident 32 years ago. She then lost the ability to walk.
Gutsy: Malaysian Interfaith Network coordinator Dr John Gurusamy presenting the trophy and cash prize to Bathmavathi.
But a ray of hope appeared when wheelchair tennis was introduced in the early 80s and she saw the possibility of taking part in sports again.
“Besides keeping myself fit, sports gives me a sense of satisfaction and self-worth,” said the 53-year-old retiree.
Bathmavathi was among some 120 disabled people who participated in the Mini Sports For the Disabled 2007 at SJK (C) Puay Chai recently.
She bagged the first runner up trophy in wheelchair ping-pong (women's category).
The event, organised by Beautiful Gate Foundation For the Disabled and Malaysian Confederation of the Disabled, was aimed at providing an opportunity for the disabled from different races and backgrounds to interact and build friendships.
“It is also a way to boost the disabled people's confidence while challenging them physically and mentally through sports,” said Beautiful Gate Foundation executive director Pastor Sia Siew Chin.
Damansara Utama assemblyman Datuk Lim Choon Kin who was present at the prize giving ceremony said: “Although the disabled are physically handicapped, their ability to perform is sometimes better than the able-bodied.”
“This sports event is an encouragement to the disabled and also an eye-opener for the able,'' he added.
A total of four events – wheelchair ping-pong, wheelchair badminton, chess and lawn bowling – were held in the mini sports.
It was sponsored by SS2 food court, Pizza Hut, England Optical Group and Suan Huat Auto Corporation Sdn Bhd.
