EMBA LINKS SUPPORT TAKORADI HOSPITAL (PAGE 29)

EMBA Links Telecom Service, an MTN products dealer in Takoradi, has presented medical equipment to the Takoradi Hospital towards the delivery of quality health care by the facility.
The donation, which preceded the formal opening of the telecom service, included a suction machine and BP equipment.
Speaking at the opening ceremony, the Deputy Western Regional Minister, Mr Kwasi Blay, noted that the remarkable gesture sought to complement the government’s efforts at delivering adequate health care in the metropolis.
“While commending the efforts of Emba Links on this score, l urge other corporate bodies in the region to emulate this shining example by also donating medical supplies and equipment to other hospitals, clinics and health centres in the region,” he said.
He noted that the opening of the telecom service lent credence to the government’s enduring promise to make the private sector the engine of growth of the economy, adding, “The establishment of a ministry responsible for private sector development buttresses government’s belief in the private sector.”
Mr Blay also said the entry of Emba Links into the telecommunication industry would raise the level of competition among the various players, as each would strive to catch the attention of customers through a range of strategies and initiatives, saying, “Such a healthy situation will ultimately be beneficial to the final customer”.
He said the opening of the service was very significant, as the opening of yet another business in the thriving telecommunication industry was certainly bound to complement the government’s efforts at the creation of employment and wealth and reducing poverty in the metropolis, adding, “This will eventually lead us to the attainment of a middle-income status by the year 2015.”
Mr Blay advised the management and staff of the company to provide quality services, since customers had become discerning and would opt to do business with entities that provided the best of services.
“Management and staff should also cultivate a healthy and friendly relationship with customers, whose patronage of your services will move the company to a greater height,” he emphasised.
The Chief Executive Officer of Emba Links, Mrs Judith Arthur, said the company was committed to delivering a superior distribution network that would ensure that MTN products were available everywhere within its assigned territory.
In an address read on his behalf, the Sales and Distribution Executive of MTN, Mr Ebenezer Asante, said the appointment of Emba Links was directly connected with MTN’s commitment to its cherished customers and ensuring that its products were available at as many customer touch points as possible.
