Since the launch of the MPT SMS Donation Program started on August 6, it is our great pleasure to announce that through the end of August, MPT customers have donated a total of nearly 300 million Myanmar Kyats ( 296,530,500 MMK ) to support victims of the recent flooding in the country. This valuable goodwill from the Myanmar people will be channeled in utmost transparency to those affected by the recent disaster via the National Disaster Management Committee for flood rehabilitation measures in the areas of greatest need. The ceremony was held on September 3, 2015, 10am in Nay Pyi Taw at Ministry of Social Welfare, Relief & Resettlement, through by H.E Dr.Daw Myat Myat Ohn Khin, Ministry of Social Welfare, and Relief & Resettlement.

Those donations will be used at the support of housing, infrastructure, health care, water purification, and support for education supplies for schools and children who were affected via National Disaster Management Committee.

We’d like to thank each of our customers who participated in this program. “Our SMS Donation Channel remains open for your continuous support.” and every SMS counts. The goodwill from our customers is enormous not only in the amount of money raised but also the expression of their hearts and spirits of generosity. On behalf of those who will receive the donations, we thank our customers for their gestures of kindness and reminder that we are all united in times of need. We also would like to thank the Ministry of Social Welfare, Relief & Resettlement and Ministry of Communications and Information Technology.

We’d like to thank each of our customers who participated in this program with great kindness and send our well wishes to them. We would like to keep you informed of the progress and the details of our donation program on our Facebook/Website.
