KOTA KINABALU: Whenever wheelchair-bound Fariz Abd Rani gets invited to an event here, the first thing he checks is whether or not it is possible for him to get there. The 41-year-old, who runs his own medical device company and training consultancy, said he needs to know whether the building is disabled-friendly, among other things. “Does the building have a parking space for the disabled? Is there a ramp? Are there elevators? "Is there a toilet for the disabled which can fit a wheelchair? Because if not, it means I need to control my consumption of fluids. “If I do not do my homework, I might discover there are no such facilities, and get stuck along the way.
