Johor Bahru, 16 December 2020 – Paragon Globe Berhad (“Paragon Globe”) has extended the support and love to the frontliners in Hospital Sultan Ismail, Hospital Sultanah Aminah Johor Bahru and Hospital Permai Johor Bahru by contributing a total of 300 goody bags to show them our appreciation for their efforts in combating the novel coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”) pandemic.
Each hospital has received 100 goody bags that filled with hand cream and essential items such as instant coffee, instant chocolate malt drink, crackers, cup noodle and snack. The initiative to distribute the hand cream is to help the frontliners to replenish and hydrate their hands due to frequent and prolonged use of ethanol-based hand sanitizer.
Commenting on the Show the Appreciation to Hospital Frontliners Programme, Dato’ Sri Edwin Tan Pei Seng, Chairman Executive of Paragon Globe, said, “The immense dedication, invaluable commitment and unwavering efforts of the frontliners amidst the COVID-19 pandemic are truly incomparable.”
“This contribution was part of our corporate social responsibility (“CSR”) programme, where we hope can cheer up the frontliners with these small gestures of appreciation,” he added.
Paragon Globe has organised another CSR programme since the enforcement of the Movement Control Order in March 2020. Paragon Globe has donated 100,000 pieces of 3-layer surgical face masks to the Johor State Government to support the government in its efforts to address the safety needs of medical teams, relevant authorities and the Rakyat on 30 March 2020.
