The donation was the combined effort of Sibu Member of Parliament Oscar Ling, assemblywoman for Bukit Assek Irene Chang, assemblyman for Pelawan David Wong, Catholic Welfare Sibu and the public.
“Today, we hand over the cheque to Sibu Hospital Board of Visitors to buy a set of Soft Tissue Ultrasonic Aspirator costing RM90,000 for neurosurgery use as the hospital is in dire need of this equipment,” said Wong.
