Sixteen-month-old MalaysianToddler Dies After Scalding

    Toddler's parents
    A toddler is dead, all because his rubber-tapper parents could not bring themselves to wake up the staff members of a nearby rural clinic outside working hours.

    Muhammad Irwan Zulhakim Normushamshuri, aged 16 months, died in an ambulance on his way to Alor Star Hospital about 18 hours after he was scalded with hot water in his home in Naka.

    He was scalded on the thigh and chest when he accidentally toppled a jug of hot water on Wednesday night.

    His mother Zuraidah Jaafar, 25, said the incident occurred at about 8.30pm when she was preparing tea.

    “I feel bad knocking on people’s doors at night asking for help. I understand that people need to rest,” she said. The clinic closes at 5pm.
