A PAIR of blind masseur and masseuse are excited that they are now able to return to work with the reopening of the sector under the conditional movement control order. “During the MCO and when we could not work, we had to be thrifty and ate more vegetarian food to save cost, ” said Saraswathy, who was grateful for the food basket aid. Its chief executive officer George Thomas hopes more donors will come on board to support the association’s food basket programme. “MAB is happy to note that we are confident in helping close to 3,800 blind individuals, with food baskets in the country. He added that over 1,500 of them had so far benefitted from the food basket programme with some 3,500 hot meals distributed in Brickfields, Kuala Lumpur, since January this year.
