RM50,000 donation received to build UTAR Hospital

PETALING JAYA: Donations continue to pour in for the Universiti Tunku Abdul Rahman (UTAR) Hospital in Kampar, Perak with another RM50,000 contributed for the construction of the teaching hospital.

MCA president Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong, who was present at a mock cheque ceremony presentation in Wisma MCA here on Tuesday (Jan 31), conveyed his appreciation to the donor NCT Alliance Berhad.

"The UTAR Hospital offers medical care services across both western, traditional and complementary medicine. This includes Chinese, Ayurvedic and traditional Malay medicine at a reasonable fee.

"Most importantly, the hospital shares the same vision as the Tunku Abdul Rahman University of Management and Technology (TAR UMT) and UTAR, both of which were formed by MCA, to prioritise people of all races, especially the needy," Dr Wee said in a Facebook post on Tuesday.

Also present at the presentation were NCT Alliance Berhad group executive director Datuk Seri Yap Fook Choy, UTAR president Prof Datuk Dr Ewe Hong Tat and NCT Alliance Berhad chief strategist Neil Foo.
