WHEN ROCHORE KONGSI WAS SET UP IN 1977-SOME 19 YEARS AGO-TO
PROVIDE A DECENT SHELTER OVER THE OLD FOLKS’ HEADS, IT WAS
CONSIDERED A BLESSING. THIS WAS BECAUSE ALL THE OLD FOLKS
CONCERNED WERE DESTITUTES WHO SLEPT IN “BEDS” UNDER
STAIRCASES, ALONG CORRIDORS, ETC., AND THEY WERE EXPOSED TO
THE ELEMENTS.
HOWEVER, AS THE COMMUNITY MADE PROGRESS TO BETTER
PHYSICAL SURROUNDINGS, THE MERE ABILITY TO SHELTER THEIR
HEADS AND KEEPING THE ELEMENTS AWAY WAS NOT ADEQUATE. THE
MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE THEREFORE, DECIDED IN 1991 TO UPGRADE
THE KONGSI.
THE RENOVATION OF THE KONGSI PROVIDED A GOOD OPPORTUNITY TO
PLAN A MORE FRIENDLY ENVIRONMENT THAT WOULD BE ABLE TO
CATER TO THE NEEDS OF THE ELDERLY. FOR EXAMPLE, A BRIGHTER,
WELL-LIT HOME: HANDLES TO DOORS INSTEAD OF KNOBS:SUPPORT
BARS IN THE BATH ROOMS, APPROPRIATE COLOUR SCHEMES, ETC.
