Insee Cement Sri Lanka is expanding its multifaceted approach to counter the spread of Covid-19 across the island by commending the selfless efforts of Sri Lanka military personnel who stepped in to fight the spread of the virus from the frontlines.
The company signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Sri Lanka Army in July offering military personnel a concessionary rate for Insee Sanstha cement as a gesture of gratitude to personnel across all ranks of the army.
The MoU was signed by Brigadier Tikiri Dissanayake who heads the Directorate of Army Welfare, and Jan Kunigk, Executive Vice President – Sales, Marketing and Innovations at Insee Cement at the Army Headquarters, Sri Jayewardenepura Kotte.
“From distributing relief and contact tracing to running quarantine centers across the country, the Sri Lanka Military has been exemplary in their efforts to fight and contain COVID-19 in the country,” Jan Kunigk said.
“We are honoured to be part of this project implemented by the Directorate of Army Welfare to offer Sanstha cement at a subsidised rate to all Army personnel, and will continue to play our role as a responsible corporate that is in the frontlines, leading the re-building of our nation,” he said.
Army personnel could purchase subsidised Insee Sanstha cement by coordinating with Army Welfare shops in Panagoda, Anuradhapura, Pallekele, Minneriya, Boossa, Ampara, Diyatalawa and the Army Headquarters at Sri Jayawardenepura Kotte.
