Port City Colombo has donated 20 laptop computers to the Colombo Municipal Council (CMC) to be used at vaccination centres, in support of the council’s ongoing public vaccination drive against COVID-19.
Jiang Houliang, Managing Director of CHEC Port City Colombo, handed over the laptops to the Mayor of Colombo, Rosy Senanayake last week at the Colombo Municipal Council, the Port City said in a media release.
The Mayor highly appreciated the philanthropic gesture of Port City Colombo during these challenging times, when the country is in the midst of fighting a global pandemic. She said that the laptop computers were an essential requirement for the CMC officials who are engaged in the vaccination program in the Colombo municipality. Mr. Houliang thanked the Mayor and her staff for the assistance and guidance during the vaccination program held at Port City Colombo premises for local and Chinese staff in April.
Dr. Ruwan Wijemuni, Chief Medical Officer of CMC, who also participated in the hand over, said the CMC vaccination programme using the Sinopharm vaccine is currently underway, covering the entire Colombo metropolis. He added that the data collection process at vaccination centers is crucial and that the officers are now able to use the computers donated to streamline the process.
