PETRONAS CONTRIBUTES RM50,000 WORTH OF IFTAR MEALS TO COVID-19 FRONT-LINERS

KUALA TERENGGANU, May 6 (Bernama) -- PETRONAS through its subsidiaries, PETRONAS Carigali Sdn Bhd (PCSB) and Vestigo Petroleum Sdn Bhd (VESTIGO) had recently contributed more than RM50,000 worth of packed iftar meals to 243 COVID-19 front-liners from the Malaysian Armed Forces and Royal Malaysia Police in Kuala Terengganu in conjunction with the month of Ramadan.

The meals were prepared by the Paya Bunga Hotel here, and distributed to the front-liners at the hotel lobby by both PCSB and hotel employees from 23 to 30 April 2020.

PCSB’s Senior General Manager of Peninsular Malaysia Assets, Hasliza Othman said: “This is a token of our appreciation to the unsung heroes for their efforts in stopping the spread of the virus throughout the Movement Control Order period. We are truly grateful for their commitment in keeping us safe.”

“In supporting PETRONAS’ CSR initiatives, we hope that this contribution will help ease the burden of our front-liners. We will continue to work closely with the relevant government agencies as part of our commitment to improve the well-being of society, especially during this challenging time,” she added.

This initiative complements PETRONAS’ recent contribution of RM20 million worth of medical equipment and supplies to hospitals and healthcare front-liners in Malaysia through its CSR arm Yayasan PETRONAS, as well as other Group-wide contributions towards the COVID-19 cause.
