残障Disabilities

原来面对残酷的现实需要很大的勇气, 一直期待奇迹出现的我终于接受了自己的残障，不再浪费时间等什么痊愈，不再窝在家那里都不想去。很幸运地现在已经可以慢慢走，上下楼梯只要有扶手就不成问题，没扶手只要有人陪就行，所以鼓起勇气往外走。
Facing the cruel reality needs a lot of courage. Even though I was still hoping for the miracle, I have accepted my disabilities. I decided not to waste my life nor waiting for the miracle healing, no longer locked myself at home. I was lucky because I can still able to walk even slowly. I can climb up the stair case with the arm rail. If arm rail is not available, I will ask for help.
首先，我申请了一张OKU(orang kurang upaya)的卡, 我开始学习出外走走，像从前一样，也要像正常人一样到处看看，但也察觉到不少残障者之不便。
Firstly, I applied for an OKU (orang kurang upaya) card; and started to go out just like before. I want to be normal, but also realized that many of physical disabilities inconvenient.
残障者出外面对最大的障碍就是厕所。所谓人有三急，没出门前总要打听那儿的厕所。以前因为卫生问题怎样都不会用的坐厕，现在成为唯一的选择。残障人的厕所成为储藏室是早有所闻，更糟糕的有些甚至锁起来，还得四处找寻负责人，大家解释说是因为有些不负责任的人胡乱使用而至。当然幸运的我总会有人相陪而迎刃而解。
The main problem I face is the restroom. Whenever I want to go out, I will inquire about the restroom condition. Previously, due to hygiene concern, I will never use sitting toilet bowl, but now it becomes my only way. Some of the disabilities restroom becomes the storeroom is not news anymore and some even locked; we must search for the person in charge. They explained that this is because the irresponsible person uses the facilities carelessly. Those obstacle can be overcome by me through helps of accompanies.
除此，还会发现对坐轮椅的残障朋友有些地方的确不方便，明明是写着残障人专用的跑道，却无端出现地面不平或有台阶。残障者的专用停车位被人占用。
Beside that we can discover that other wheelchair's friend will find some inconvenient, the special-purpose runway for physical disabilities for no reason will present the ground uneven or has a stair. The disable parking lot occupied by a perfectly normal person (maybe mentally disable..).
希望说因为政治人物周美芬的一场车祸，加巴星从楼梯的一跌而唤起大家的醒觉，让大家关注残障者的福利，使之得以稍为改善。
I hope that some recent incidents happened to our politician will increase our government’s awareness. Dato’ Chew Mei Fen’s traffic accident and Karpal Singh’s incident (fall from a staircase) are good examples of disable person’s basic facilities and welfare not being emphases in our country.
