PJ Eco Recycling Plaza

Walking into PJ Eco Recycling Plaza recently felt like stumbling upon a hidden spot. After a brief glance at its Facebook page, I noticed that most posts featured visitors from corporates, schools, and NGOs. The page mentioned, it is a government building and a one-stop learning centre. I began to wonder if individuals like myself could also come and donate recyclable items commonly used at home. Intrigued, my friend and I decided to visit on a Sunday, not expecting much but hoping to see what types of recycling bins were available so we could return another time to drop off our recyclables. Upon entering, there are racks of preloved items such as toys, clothes, and kitchenware, all being sold at incredibly low prices. My friend couldn't resist and ended up purchasing a cubic toy for just RM1 and a domino board game for RM2. Curious, we began to explore, discovering that the public could freely access the exhibitions or sections within the building. They even have a second floor. W

Women In The Clouds Of Climate Change

 In rural areas, the women wear many hats for a household chores such as cooking, washing, farming or harvesting. Their lives already difficult as it is to secure clean water and food for daily consumption.  Hence, climate change hit them harder as they depend on natural resources to provide for their families, albeit horrendous living.  Flood or drought kills their source of livelihood, both food for consume or source of income. To restart, they need money and to regrow their crops, need time.  While gearing up again from post natural disaster, the impact is harder on women to work perhaps double the effort to supply for their families. The impact of climate change on the indigenous women health and economy are paramount. Clean water, sustenance from small agriculture or forest nearby and rearing livestock are their main sources to continue cycle of lives. These are essential to them. Their cries are not amplified enough. With limited access to information, their awareness are deem lo

10 TIPS To Stay Mentally Well

 I made these posters about mental health in 2 different vibes.                                                                Mental health (Poster 1) The idea behind the poster is to give it a positive vibe so that those who see it are inspired to live a healthier lifestyle.  Hence, the vibrant colours and the images of hobbies and feeling relax.                                                                 Mental health (Poster 2) The concept of the poster is to tell them at first glance, "We feel you, we feel the same, and we want to get well too." Hence the ill teddy bear and still hopeful to get better.  #mentalhealth #kesihatanmental #socialresponsibility

Our Beautiful Nature

From the sound of waterfall, To the creaking of bugs, There lie a person, in a hammock.  With hands behind the head, legs crossed. Unwind, without care in the world. How calming the decibels of nature, In the ears of a traveller, Away from high pitched tones, Hazards of much pollutions.  No matter how luxurious you are, Human always come back to nature. To find peace and serene, To unwire the hectic, busy life, To reset and reboot. We return to natural beauty, Presenting before our eyes as nature gratis. Preserve and conserve the earth, we shall, For generations to come. #poem #climatechange #naturelovers

Keganasan Rumah Tangga : Isyarat Tangan Tolong Saya!

Baru-baru ini seorang remaja perempuan di Amerika Syarikat telah dapat diselamatkan kerana menggunakan isyarat tangan yang viral di Tik Tok. Dia berada di dalam sebuah kenderaan dan seorang pemandu lain terlihatnya.  Remaja itu melakukan isyarat pertolongan dengan pergerakan tangannya. Mujur pemandu itu  memahami isyarat tangan itu. Lalu pemandu itu menelefon 911. Apakah maksud isyarat tangan itu? Ia adalah isyarat pertolongan bagi mangsa keganasan rumah tangga atau domestic violence . Kempen ini telah diperkenalkan oleh Canadian Women’s Foundation berikutan peningkatan keganasan domestik akibat lockdown yang berpanjangan ketika awal-awal pandemik Covid-19 berlaku. Isyarat tangan itu sangat mudah bagi mangsa kerana tidak perlu menggunakan kata-kata tetapi hanya melakukan isyarat tangan ringkas.  Caranya ialah menghalakan tapak tangan ke kamera, kemudian menggenggam ibu jari di dalam tapak tangan anda.                                    Gambar : Canadian Women’s Foundation Mangsa tidak
