SIBU: Two businessmen contributed to Sibu Hospital on Thursday, donating six air-conditioners and 12 electric fans to improve comfort for patients and hospital staff.
Chuong Soui Chang, 78, who runs a bakery business, handed over six air-conditioners and an electrical distribution box to Sibu Hospital Deputy Director, Dr Nizam Ishak, in the presence of Sibu Hospital Visitors’ Board Chairman, Michael Lee, and other officials.
The contribution is valued at over RM30,000.
Expressing his gratitude, Lee said the donation would allow more hospital wards to be fitted with air-conditioners, providing a more comfortable environment for patients and staff.
Noting that the existing units are insufficient, he added that his ultimate goal is for the hospital to be fully air-conditioned with the continued support of public donations.
He also urged other corporations and individuals to come forward and contribute.
On the same day, another businessman, Hii Hieng Tiew, donated 12 electric fans for the hospital.
The contribution was handed over to Dr Nizam by Datuk Wong Tiing Kiong for hospital use.
