Zahri reported that 140 out of 147 childcare centers, 100 out of 108 welfare and disability centers, and 67 out of 70 homes for the elderly are already licensed. He noted that many operators initially open their centers and address licensing later. He emphasized MBPJ’s commitment to ensuring all care centers operate legally, safely, and with quality. Zahri also outlined MBPJ’s targets, including improving care center guidelines, expanding training for carers, and fostering innovation in social care services. Petaling Jaya aims to become a model city for the care economy in Malaysia. [/QUOTE]
