New Year
came early for the 120 underprivileged children of the Pusat Jagaan Kanak-Kanak
Cacat Taman Megah at 21st December 2012. The purveyor of Asia’s well-loved sauces and condiments manufacturer, Lee Kum Kee (Malaysia ) came to visit. Representatives
of the company came with cartons of Lee Kum Kee’s Panda Oyster Sauce, recipe
booklets by Lee Kum Kee’s brand ambassador, Chef Wan and colorful school bags
for the coming New Year. More interestingly, Lee Kum Kee’s in-house Chef Wilson
was brought in to whip up a healthy, hearty and utterly delicious meal for all
at the welfare home, including workers and caretakers, using various Lee Kum
Kee’s products.
The lovingly
prepared meal was a real treat that brought great delight and smiles to the
children’s faces. Local favourites such as Claypot Chicken Rice, Crispy Fine
Shrimp Chicken, and XO Sauce Fried Rice were cooked and served. On top of that,
Chef Wilson provided the caretakers with helpful tips on how to fully optimize
the usage of their newly received oyster sauce supply to conveniently prepare
restaurant-quality meals within a minimal amount of time.
“Lee Kum Kee’s oyster sauce is
made from the finest oyster extract. Its rich oyster flavour enhances the taste
and appearance of many dishes. It can transform a simple dish
into a gastronomic delight. It gives us all, at Lee Kum Kee, the greatest
pleasure to know that the children here enjoyed themselves today. “, said the
General Manager of Lee Kum Kee (SEA, ME & Africa Region), Mr Edward Chua.
Lee Kum Kee is a
strong believer in giving back to society. Over the years, Lee Kum Kee Group has
contributed greatly in various causes, especially when it comes to education,
as it is believed that sound education is the permanent solution to many
societal problems. Some examples of their contributions include helping to
build schools and supporting students in need. Besides the Pusat
Jagaan Kanak-Kanak Cacat Taman Megah, four other charity homes comprising or
underprivileged children and the elderly received 4 cartons each of Panda
Oyster Sauce plus recipe booklets by Chef Wan. The receiving homes were
Pertubuhan Rumah Amal Cahaya Tengku Ampuan Rahimah, PJ Caring Home, Agathians
Shelter and PJ Sunshine Home.
“We are glad that we are able to enrich the
lives of these wonderful children. We see that so many other charity homes
could benefit from our corporate social responsibility (CSR) programs such as
this. In the coming year, we hope to engage in even more CSR activities, reach
out to more people and spread our love through good food! ”, said Chua.
