According to the statement, the contribution made under MRA’s We Care Sarawak and We Care Sabah programmes demonstrated PTTEP’s commitment to three out of its four CSR pillars, namely Basic Needs, Education, and Environment.

It said that a significant portion of the contribution was channelled towards crucial school resources such as students’ back-to-school supplies, care kits, food supplies, and facilities, while the rest were directed toward initiatives of education, environment, and community empowerment in partnership with government agencies.

On the same note, PTTEP Head of Malaysia Sarawak Asset Denkey Thatchaichawalit said for the CSR engagement, they are working with more government agencies in Sarawak and Sabah, including the Papar District Health Department, Beaufort District Health Office and Bintulu as well as Tatau Fire and Rescue Stations.
