 The

Taxi drivers were amongst those worse hit. It was common to hear

to feed their families. Our CEO had on one particular occasion
spoken to one such driver and realised the need for drastic assistance.
His compassion for the troubled and needy inspired the Group to
launch this charity drive. Staff from all levels rolled up their
sleeves and participated actively in this exercise.

necessities were packed and distributed to taxi drivers. Items
in the pack included 5kg of rice, 1kg of sugar, 1kg of oil, 15
