One (1) unit of wheelchair was donated generously by MIC Youth Sabah to The Thalassemia Treatment Centre, Hospital Queen Elizabeth (HQE) in Jalan Penampang on 25.Feb.2010.
The donation of the wheelchair was prompted by the request from the centre a week ago that some of the weaker patients had to rely on the equipment in order to move around in the hospital area freely, and easily.
Balachandra, a Public Complaint Bureau head, and a member, of the board; who is also a member of the MIC Sabah, immediately sought help from their youth wing, and the wish of the centre, and the desires of its young patients were finally fulfilled waiting too long.
The wheelchair obviously relieves the stress of the medical workers, and the users, in the centre as proven by their smiles.
Upon informed by Sister Irene, and Matron Elizabeth, the board in its most recent monthly meeting accepted the voluntary donation from MIC, represented by En. Balachandra.
The hand-over of the wheelchair were witnessed by Matron Elizabeth and Sister Irene from the hospital; En. Rudy, En. Gary, and En. Neil from MIC; and Mr. Balachandran (Head of Complaint bureau), Mr. Ong See Kwang (Committee Member), Madam Maria Sandra Sho (Deputy Secretary), and Mr. Chu Kong Ming (Chairman) from the LPHQE respectively.
Those interested to contribute towards the improvement of the hospital, in cash or in kind, may contact the hospital, or LPHQE, directly as follows:-
