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 related to social responsibility:
“If the Russians have gone too far in subjecting the child and his peer group to conformity to a single set of values imposed by the adult society, perhaps we have reached the point of diminishing returns in allowing excessive autonomy and in failing to utilize the constructive potential of the peer group in developing social responsibility and consideration for others.”
—Urie Bronfenbrenner (b. 1917)
