Pendapat DRT: Tindakan yang baik dan cekaoleh Dato Seri Shahrizat and Dato Meme Zainal Rashid, Ketua Pengarah Jabatan Kebajikan. Ini yang rakyat suka dan mahu. Banyakkan tindakan dan kurangkan cakap yang retorik.
KUALA LUMPUR: Most of the Rumah Titian Kasih Puteri (RTK) residents have been relocated over the weekend to three care centres run by the government.
As of yesterday, all senior citizens and the disabled of the all-women shelter in Taman Tasik Titiwangsa were sent either to Rumah Ihsan in Kuala Kubu Baru, Rumah Seri Kenanga in Seremban and Taman Sinar Harapan, also in Kuala Kubu Baru.
Only seven single mothers and children are still at RTK Puteri.
Bedridden elderly people were sent to Rumah Ihsan and the mobile ones to Rumah Seri Kenanga. The disabled were sent to Taman Sinar Harapan.
The effort to relocate the residents came on Friday when Women, Family and Community Development Minister Datuk Seri Shahrizat Abdul Jalil revealed that the shelter had been operating without a licence for 12 years.
She said all the residents would be placed in the different institutions under the Welfare Department, according to their needs.
Shahrizat had described the shelter' s condition as "worrying" after a tour of the home.
In a statement yesterday, Welfare Department director-general Datuk Meme Zainal Rashid said the home was being investigated.
