吕启泰新春开放日强调马华容纳不同声音

（槟岛西南区22日讯）马华峇眼区会主席准拿督吕启泰指出，该区会的整合团队工作进行得相当顺利，整合团队贯彻的应是民主主义，乐于容纳不同的声音和坦然接受批评。

他说，在整合团队过程中，或许基于理念有异，当中确实出现一些不同的声音，但只要是合情合理的意见，即使是多数的一方，也要接受少数一方的批评，这才是真正的民主，这也是峇眼区会在整合团队的努力中所贯彻的精神。

吕启泰是以马华峇眼区会主席的身份，首次在其位于武吉占姆的住家举办新春开放日，向记者这么说道。马华总会长拿督斯里翁诗杰较后也赴会与峇眼区会同志们举杯言欢。

吕启泰也说道，在时下政局不稳的时刻，马华上下包括峇眼区会更应团结一致。他呼吁国家领袖，特别是槟州政府关注州经济，搞好经济才是当务之急，毕竟人民温饱才是最重要。相关照片

Prevention is better than cure

THOSE patronising the Apollo Market along Jalan Raja Uda in Butterworth recently received a pleasant surprise when several MCA Youth members distributed free face masks, leaflets and instant hand sanitisers to them.

Bagan MCA division Youth head David Chua Teik Siang said the event was organised to create public health awareness following the influenza A (H1N1) flu pandemic.

“We believe the approach of going to the ground to meet people is the most effective,’’ he said.

About 6,000 masks, 1,000 leaflets and 100 hand sanitisers were given away during the campaign which lasted about two hours at the Apollo Market.

Chua noted that many were not taking precautionary measures, especially the wearing of the face mask, seriously despite repeated reminders by the health authorities.

He said the people should inculcate the culture of taking precautionary measures as prevention is better than cure.

Several people slowed down their vehicles and asked for the face masks while some even asked for extra ones during the campaign.

Irene Liew, 37, a housewife praised the MCA Youth for their caring attitude in embarking on the awareness campaign about the viral flu.

Indira Siva, 27, an accountant said other organisations including non-governmental organisations (NGOs) should emulate the wing as such efforts would benefit the community.
