PETALING JAYA: It is always a risk for a woman to take a taxi alone with a male driver, but for a blind woman, the stakes are even higher.
Norashikin (not her real name), 47, was taken on a terror ride a few months ago by a cab driver who told her: “I can take you anywhere, and do anything to you. You can’t even see me.”
Fortunately for her, she reached her destination safely. But not everyone is that lucky.
Many women, even those who are physically able, have been harassed, molested or even raped by taxi drivers in the past.
]With this in mind, the Association of Women with Disabilities Malaysia is calling on the Government to set up a taxi service “by women, for women.”
“There is a great need for a taxi service dedicated to women,” said its president Bathmavathi Krishnan, adding that it would reduce the fear women faced in getting into a taxi alone, especially at night.
“Many of us who are physically disabled need help getting in and out of the cab, and it is preferable that we are handled by a female instead of a male driver,” she said.
Bathmavathi said there had been several cases where blind women who were harassed by taxi drivers could not make a police report because they could not provide the taxi’s licence plate number or even identify the driver.
“It is worse for us who are blind or wheelchair-bound as we will not be able to run if we are attacked,” she said, adding that such a service had been implemented in other countries.
“We hope the Government will take this seriously,” she said.
Jelas sekali wanita-wanita di Malaysia memang amat cerewet dan suka mementingkan diri sendiri.Oke, sebelum gua menaip lebih panjang, golongan ini hanya boleh dijumpai di bandar-bandar besar terutama KL dan bandar-bandar sekitar yang membangun lain, wanita di pekan-pekan dan kampung-kampung termasuk daerah tanah merah lupakan isu ini.
Beberapa tahun lepas, ada sesetengah 'pihak wanita' menyarankan supaya koc penumpang komuter di'reserved'kan untuk perempuan sahaja.maka wujudlah koc tengah pada komuter yang berlogokan kepala wanita freehair bewarna pink.tidak dinafikan ia untuk kebaikan wanita itu sendiri takut di cabul, di rogol serta di hidangkan dengan kehangitan ketiak bangla dan warga asing lain
tetapi adakah mereka turut mengikut peraturan tersebut dengan menggunakan koc berkenaan? tidak bukan...mereka boleh sesuka hati melepak di mana-mana yren sedangkan lelaki tersilap masuk koc perempuan ko dihalau seperti anjing.
kebanyakkan yang menggunakan komuter (lelaki malaysia) adalah budak-budak sekolah dan mereka yang sudah bekerjaya melainkan warga asing yang mungkin mahu ronda-ronda dan ingin serta berniat untuk berjenayah sahaja yang selalu menggunakan perkhidmatan tren tak kira komuter, erk, lrt, monorel mahupun erl nanti...
sepatutnya koc yang perlu di asingkan adalah warga asing yang memang sudah asing di negara kita
baru-baru ni timbul pula isu ingin mengadakan teksi berasingan kerana takut akan benda yang sama.kalau pengasingan tren/koc komuter masih lagi boleh diterima tetapi kalau sekecil-kecil teksi pun mahu di asingkan maka itu sudah boleh diklasikasikan wanita malaysia adalah paling penakut dan cerewet sekali di dunia
anda fikir anda tahu Wanita Malaysia yang Cerewet Mahu Mereka di asingkan Dengan Teksi Bewarna Pink? anda fikir sekali lagi....
