    This is good effort to raise public awareness toward keeping the river clean, yet this kind of effort is not sustainable if the waste and drain managment / infrastructure/ planning of the country is substandard. Malaysia need compreshensive waste and recyle management, from urban planning to resource management to infrastructure and economic building to tackle the problem at it's root.

    As the grandchild of deaf-blind grandparents, I loved hearing the Helen Keller quote. Blindness separates you from things but deafness separates you from people. I will never understand why sign languages are not taught widely in schools just as much as foreign languages.

    I can't think of anything worse than being both deaf and blind. I get bored at home with perfect vision and hearing, a 65" TV, a PS5, a PC, my family, animals, and countless other things to keep me occupied. I can't begin to imagine being deaf and blind.
