48. Disability issues and policy: power not pity

<p>The disabled community in Malaysia has been an overlooked community in Malaysia for a long time. Their plights often go unnoticed and they would have to help themselves due to a lack of support. However, even with all the struggles that they face, members of the community remain proud of themselves.</p> <p>For this episode of Youthphoria, we spoke with Yeong Moh Foong of <a href="https://www.unitedvoice.com.my/"><u>United Voice</u></a> and Murugeswaran Veerasamy of <a href="http://damai.org.my/"><u>Damai Disabled Person Association Malaysia</u></a> on ableism, the differences between disabilities, and what the public can do to help improve the rights of the disabled community.</p> <p>Yeong Moh Foong is the current Lead Coordinator of United Voice, a Self-advocacy Society of Persons with Learning Disabilities. She is a senior Job Coach trainer under Job Coach Network Malaysia (a unit set up under Jabatan Pembangunan OKU, JKM Malaysia) and has conducted many trainings and TOT (Training of Trainers) for participants from Malaysia.</p> <p>Whereas as a wheelchair user himself, Murugeswaran has been leading a rights-based advocacy movement that has brought positive changes in the landscapes of public transportation, aviation, universal designs and more to the OKU Community of Malaysia.</p> <p>Follow us on our social media to keep up with current affairs and inspiring content: Instagram/Facebook/Twitter: @youthphoriamk</p>

47. Homelessness: Victims of circumstances or by choice?

<p>Homelessness is a negative emotive word that conjures up images of people sleeping on the sidewalk, scavenging for food in trash cans, the drunk and dangerous. Aside from the negative images that came along with homelessness, there is a lack of understanding of who the homeless are and what they have been through that has led them to this life.&nbsp;</p> <p><br></p> <p>Therefore, in this episode of Youthphoria, we spoke to Justin from Kechara Soup Kitchen (KSK) to understand the homeless community better and learn how we can make a positive difference in the community.&nbsp;</p> <p><br></p> <p>Justin takes great pride in the work KSK is doing and is grateful to all sponsors, volunteers, supporters, and its wonderful committee and staff who form the legs that allow it to develop even further.</p> <p><br></p> <p>Follow us on our social media to keep up with current affairs and inspiring content: Instagram/Facebook/Twitter: @youthphoriamk</p>

46. Does press freedom matter?

<p>Press freedom is a vital part of a democratic nation that ideally should be a right to the members of the press of said nation. With press freedom, the press has the right to fight for the truth, hold powers that be accountable while informing the public about the affairs of the country without fear of censorship or governmental interference. Unfortunately, as administrations change across time, the state of press freedom has coincidently been in constant and ceaseless flux.&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>For this issue of Youthphoria, we had the pleasure of speaking with Basil Foo, our Subeditor from Malaysiakini who spoke to us about his journalistic inspirations and explained the importance of press freedom, the state of press freedom in our country and if there is any way to improve it.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Follow us on our social media to keep up with current affairs and fundamental causes: Instagram/Facebook: @youthphoriamk</p>
