Welcome to Caring Malaysia
The health and happines of a nation are refected in the real quality of life
that ordinary people lead.
The struggle for this quality of life, for peace and justice, for health and
harmony, for respect and tolerance and for growth and success are rooted in
the struggles of community groups.
History tells us it is these groups led by committed individuals who understand
the "power of one" and the "power of many" that are the
cutting edge for social transformation for a better world.
These groups - call them civil society, community groups, "Societies"
or "Associations" or even that negative term "Non - Governmental
Organisations (as opposite to Non - Peoples Organisations, I guess) - are the
vanguard for change.
Malaysia has a magnificant tradition of such groups - local, national and global.
They cover every area from human rights to humanitarian aid, from consumerism
to environment, from children welfare to gender issues and a host of other issues
including emerging issues such as transparency and integrity and interfaith
dialogue.
This website is both a celebration of this dynamism of these people and groups,
and also a resource for knowing them and about their work, their struggles and
their achievements.
Do let us have updates and information about these and new groups who are part
of the "caring" and sometimes "daring" society that Malaysia
is fortunate to have.
