The RC Deaf Mission Malaysia

It was such an amazing and interesting lecture class that i had in my live, able to work closely with the deaf people in the class! I finally got an golden opportunity to meet the founder of RC Deaf Missions Malaysia (RCDMM), Mr Mario Peter, giving us an interesting topic regarding on the life of deaf people. Based on the presentation of Mr Mario Peter had given, i am very surprised and amazed that the words and colors in RC Deaf Missions has it own implications. The letter of RC is Reginal Coeli, which were an old friend of Mr Mario Peter's grandmother and she helped a lot of people. The blue color represent missions, that are something they want to do for the deaf people. The color of yellow represent the brightness of the Deaf person's life and the 3 person image represent developing or bettering the deaf people's life.

Not only that, i also found out that there are many deaf people living outside the world without guidance and help. Therefore, the RC Deaf Mission Malaysia RCDMM are hereby to enhance deaf livelihood. They have created job opportunity for the deaf people, for example, the deaf people will gain salaries by baking cookies and deliver to customers. On top of that, they have created a lot of activities at 2010 to enhance the knowledge of the deaf people, teaching them the sign languages. The activities included knowledge Building programmers for the Deaf, knowledge building for Singers and interpreters and so on. I am very glad that the deaf people are able to attend classes and activities like us! 

Moreover, the deaf people are actually talented in many way! The beautiful fabric are made up by deaf people during the 2008 deaf fashion show at Sunway Pyramid. Besides, there are some talented artist are deaf people. They are able to paint a fantastic art work and made a lot of sale during the Deaf Art expose event. There are some artists from Malaysia, Japan and Vietnam which produce a detail and beautiful art work stunning the whole world. 

I have learned specific knowledge about deaf people. For example, how they are aware of alarm clock is ringing in the morning, There are some special device which installed under the pillow and vibrate when it hit the time. I also learned the basic sign language regarding on greeting and the foods and family by using hands and arms instead of using mouth. Nonetheless, i have learned observation skill in the class. I found that it is very difficult to use sign language completely without talking. We have to do both observing and perceiving the information from the deaf people and act in the same time. I think RC Deaf has created huge impact for us. We are finally able to communicate with each other and closer the gap between us. I am happy to learn all the sign language so that i can start to communicate with the deaf people.
