KEEN.....Adun
Hiew with the old folks and members
The ADUN Luyang Office
staffs led by Andrew Lee Chee Keong, the special assistant to Hiew King Cheu
had conducted a visit to the Bethany Home in Taman Luyang Ph 5 which is a home
for the elderly who needed special care and shelter. The ADUN Luyang Office
organized the visit last Saturday with some cakes to celebrate Father’s Day
with the 28 senior citizens in the home.
They were absolutely happy
and delighted to see visitors paying them a visit which made them felt that
they were not being forgotten by the society. This is especially so when they
have the company of the ADUN Luyang Hiew King Cheu who shared some light
moments with them. The visitors also sang a few songs to entertain the senior
citizens while they were enjoying their afternoon tea.
Hiew was informed by the
person-in-charge of the home, Puan Esther Chien Thong Ping that the home has
been there for ten years now and with a government welfare department permit.
She said the home is not receiving government aids, and it is depending on the
money from the families of the senior citizens.
There are 7 staffs in the
home taking care of the people, and this is a tough job because some of the
older folks are incapable in walking and sitting up. The staffs also have to
prepare the regular meals according to the health condition of the people here.
Puan Esther Chien said she
welcomes visitors to come to the home, because the old folks there would be
able to share the warmth and cares brought in by the visitors.
Hiew praised the good work
provided by Puan Esther Chien and her family in providing a home for the
elderly folks who are really in need of care and friendship. The home has
provided them exactly that, because in there they found new friends and mates,
and their lives have become lively and interesting again.
This was observed during the
visit in the home. Hiew encouraged the people in Taman Luyang should go and
visit the home which is just next to Luyang Phase 5 playground and Tman
Kinamount. Please contact 088-241 451
