POWERCHINA hands over 30,000 medical masks and 500 personal protective suits to Emergency Coordination and Assistance Center

The Chinese company POWERCHINA has handed over 30,000 medical masks and 500 personal protective suits to the Emergency Coordination and Assistance Center free of charge. The medical equipment will be distributed to ambulance workers.

"We came here to hand over the necessary equipment to the medical staff of the Ministry of Health as a charity. We know that coronavirus is spreading all over the world, our company has been operating in Georgia for almost 10 years and we can say that we are part of Georgia. We know that there is a lack of medical equipment in Georgia, we can see that the medical staff are fighting against COVID-19 and are trying to keep the population healthy. POWERCHINA has decided to help both the local population and the State. Of course, this assistance is not enough, but we hope that the equipment we provided to the Ministry of Health of Georgia will be a little help,” said He Peng, a representative of the Georgian Office of POWERCHINA.

Avtandil Talakvadze, Director of the Emergency Assistance Center, personally thanked the representative of the Georgian Office of POWERCHINA and noted that the support to the Emergency Center was important in the current situation.

"POWERCHINA gave us masks and special equipment, which will be handed over to our district services. I would like to thank the company for its high social responsibility, as it is very important to support the Emergency Center in the current situation,” said Avtandil Talakvadze.
