00:00 The social security organisation, or SOCSO, has been called to establish three more new
00:07 rehabilitation centres within the next five years.
00:11 Human Resources Minister Stephen Sim Chi Keong said this is because there is only one rehabilitation
00:18 centre operating at the moment which is the Tun Abdul Razak Perkeso Rehabilitation Centre
00:24 in Aikaro, in Melaka, while in Ipoh, Perak, it will operate this year and in Terengganu,
00:31 it is still under construction.
00:33 Sim said SOCSO not only provides protection in the form of compensation, but comprehensive
00:45 protection, including rehabilitation.
00:47 He told reporters after visiting the Tun Abdul Razak Perkeso Rehabilitation Centre in Aikaro,
00:53 in Melaka, on Monday.
00:55 He also said since the Tun Abdul Razak Perkeso Rehabilitation Centre opened in 2014, it has
01:01 provided services to more than 15,000 SOCSO contributors and non-contributors to undergo
01:08 rehabilitation after being involved in an accident or illness while on duty.
