Most developed countries have enforced the use of “Universal Design” in any physical development of
their cities, for the purpose of eliminating discrimination among the society members towards the
unfortunate handicapped persons. Nevertheless, in many developing countries, the awareness and
inclusion of Universal Design is still in its initial stage. Cities’ authorities have not fully enforced the
requirement of providing access to people with disability in their built environment; neither in public nor
private spaces. The Department of Standard Malaysia (SIRIM) had initiated the publication of Malaysian
Standards as guidelines for designers; architects, city planners, landscape architects, interior designers,
and others who are involved in the construction of physical development with Universal Design. |
