KARACHI, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 19th August, 2016) : Pakistan Petroleum Limited (PPL) donated equipment worth Rs. 20 million to Murshid Hospital and Health Care Centre (MHHCC), Hub, for its various faculties.
An official said here on Friday that the Managing Director and CEO PPL Syed Wamiq Bokhari handed over the equipment to Medical Director MHHCC, Dr. Abdul Sattar Jaffer, Chairman MHHCC Abdul Razzak Jaffer as well as officials from both organizations were present at a simple ceremony held today at the hospital. Bokhari appreciated MHHCC's efforts for providing quality healthcare to deserving local communities as well as those coming from adjoining remote areas in Balochistan.
He highlighted that being a leading national Exploration and Production (E&P) company, PPL remains committed to serve the nation with a focus on improving quality of life for the underserved not only through its business but also by implementing viable development initiatives.
