Senior citizens get free glasses

By Peter Nunis

SITIAWAN: Some 94 senior citizens from the Manjung district recently received prescription glasses sponsored by the Lumut parliamentary constituency. The glasses, costing about RM180 each, were supplied by Bolton Optic Group, which also conducted free eye-checks for all the recipients.

Transport Minister Datuk Seri Kong Cho Ha, who is also Lumut member of parliament, presented the glasses to the recipients at the MCA office here.
