Mr Anthony Chin, Chief Executive Officer of MJBL, said “We are deeply concerned about this outbreak and are in full support of the Lao government’s on-going efforts to respond to, contain and overcome the outbreak. Laos has done extremely well so far and we believe that, together, we can all do our part to help overcome this challenging outbreak. In our own small way, my team and I are humbled to contribute some relief and assistance to the enormous tasks facing our medical community now. We are starting in Vientiane and plan to extend to Luang Prabang and Champassak provinces soon. We are reaching out to all our family, friends, business partners, customers and the public at large to please join us in supporting all brave medical frontliners who are working tirelessly to save lives. This is the most noble of human values. Please contribute generously and hope others will follow suit. We pray for the safety and well-being of everyone in the Lao PDR and other countries alike.”
