Social Responsibility
The monorail is no stranger to corporate social responsibility initiatives, having organized activities such as an on-site blood donation drive, free health screening, and youth training programmes, in recent times.
In line with the Malaysian government's call to build up a 'caring Malaysian society', the KL Monorail implemented the Pets@Monorail programme in 2009, aimed at encouraging and teaching children to become caring and responsible members of society by instilling a sense of awareness and appreciation towards animals. Under this programme, each station adopts and houses certain animals or pets for display; for example, the Hang Tuah station hosts a Lop Ear Rabbit and a Jersey Woolly Rabbit, while the Imbi station has a Bearded Dragon Red Iguana.

Famous quotes containing the word social:
“If you complain of people being shot down in the streets, of the absence of communication or social responsibility, of the rise of everyday violence which people have become accustomed to, and the dehumanization of feelings, then the ultimate development on an organized social level is the concentration camp.... The concentration camp is the final expression of human separateness and its ultimate consequence. It is organized abandonment.”
—Arthur Miller (b. 1915)
