Louis Prem Kumar



Louis lost his sight at the age of Seven and became partially deaf at Fourteen. After leaving school, he was trained as a Masseur and has been working in Hotel Sri Muda, Klang since 1996. He earns only a small income of about RM800 per month.

He feels lonely in the workplace because no one knows how to communicate with him. Moreover, the workers often bully him such as giving him the wrong kind of food or drink and sometimes they even put sand in his food.

Louis longs to be able to help himself and other deaf-blind persons to have a successful career and to lead a normal life. He would like to able to organize and take part in meaningful activities such as educational excursions. He cherishes the hope of having a loving wife and to raise a happy family. To do all this, Louis needs adaptive equipment and technology which as rather expensive/

Louis believes the Compassionate Scheme can help him fulfill his vision and dreams.
