As a good corporate citizen, CEM is obliged to fulfill its social responsibility to provide long-term support and contribution to social development apart from offering reliable and high quality services to Macau residents. CEM will not have today’s achievements without the support from the community. Hence, since 2005, CEM has been celebrating the Pak Tai’s Birthday with the senior citizens from Taipa and Coloane. In a blink of an eye, this year marked the 10th anniversary of the event. Iun Iok Meng expressed his gratitude to the Pak Tai’s Birthday Organizing Committee for its full assistance and support in the past decade to make the event well prepared and held successfully. He also expressed his gratitude to the CEM Ambassadors Team for their active participation and the doctors and nurses from CEM Occupational Health Services Center who have volunteered to measure the blood pressure of the participating elderly before the lunch since 2007.

During the luncheon, CEM gave away special Laisee to five eldest seniors to show the company’s care. Later, CEM distributed Laisee and souvenirs to the participating seniors. During the luncheon, CEM Ambassador Team members and the senior citizens performed several classic songs respectively. CEM Ambassadors Team members also arranged Q&A on energy saving and safety as well as interesting games to impart knowledge of daily household energy conservation to participants, making the event more fun.
