It is a sad thing to read on Sunday morning on how much the communities have lost their sense of responsibilty towards precious life of new borns in the country.
'Baby Hatch' has been launced yesterday in Kuala Lumpur by a non-profit organisation called orphanCARE to provide an alternative to mothers to leave the baby up for adoption in a similar way for dumping the baby at the rubbish bin, streets or river (as you read from all the 'kes buang bayi' news). The only benefit of 'Baby Hatch' is being a proper place for the desperate mothers to dropped their baby and be able to stay anonymous.
Quote from the paper:
The hatch has a small door which opens to an incubator bed.
Once a baby is placed inside it and the door is closed, an alarm bell will alert the staff.
It saves a life, but this may encourage such unloved act to all continue. Is it the desperate mothers that leaves us with no choice but prepare a place for them to dump their babies?
What has happened to this society?
