KUCHING: Students from Politeknik METro Betong Sarawak (PMBS) received food aid from Layar assemblyman Gerald Rentap Jabu last Wednesday.
The aid was given through the Kasih Sayang Layar Squad (SKS+) in collaboration with the Layar Service Centre, led by Layar Education Development Committee chairman Paul Langgang.
PMBS said the donation was timely and expressed its appreciation to Gerald.
The admission of PMBS students was carried out in stages and those coming from Covid-19 red zones were required to be quarantined in isolation rooms provided.
“The Student Affairs Unit and Student Representative Council of PMBS are very pleased to receive the donations. The food items included instant noodles, eggs, canned food, biscuits and instant beverages.
“The donation will ensure the food supply of the students will not be cut off during their quarantine period.”
Meanwhile, PMBS students Carmilla Valencia Jofri and Darhlinya Mathew Dandi were delighted with the donation.
“I am very grateful for the donation to those of us who are undergoing quarantine here,” said Carmilla.
“I feel overwhelmed at receiving this donation so I would like to thank Gerald and PMBS for taking care of our welfare,” added Darhlinya.
