Eurocham offers govt a helping hand in accelerating vaccination programme

KUALA LUMPUR (May 28): The European Union-Malaysia Chamber of Commerce and Industry (Eurocham Malaysia) and the whole business community are willing to contribute and assist in accelerating the nation’s vaccination programme.

The chamber said it strongly believes in expediting the government’s vaccination programme, as well as swiftly implementing public-private partnership models for vaccination procurement and delivery currently in discussion.

“Eurocham and the business community are committed to flattening the curve and fighting the pandemic together with the Malaysian people and government,” it said in a statement today.

According to the chamber, its recent donation of medical ventilators to the Ministry of Health is another notable initiative to help ease the burden on Malaysia’s healthcare system.

While applauding the government’s decision not to implement a full-scale Movement Control Order (MCO), Eurocham said it is constantly enhancing its communication efforts with the industry players in the European Union (EU) to ensure all standard operating procedures have been understood by its members to enable full compliance.

In addition, it will continue to promote all vaccination opportunities to the community.

Based on current feedback, the chamber said the EU businesses in Malaysia have been operating and adhering to the highest health and safety standards to avoid further workplace infections.
