  • 摘要:AbstractMalaysia is currently facing the problem of “population ageing”. This paper attempted to gauge the status of facilities and provisions of the outdoor environment for older people in the Klang Valley. The strategy for the research design was surveys, while the data collection involved focused group interviews upon 25 older persons, 133 questionnaire respondents either accommodated in their own homes or institutions and personal observations. Despite provisions of existing facilities, there remained rooms for improvement in ensuring the outdoor environment to be more barrier-free and inclusive towards the creation of a healthier ageing environment, ‘golden’ enough for our ‘golden’ citizens.
