Speaking at the 15 anniversary function of Malé Water and Sewerage Company (MWSC) at the Fen Building, Vice President Dr Mohamed Waheed urged all business organisations in the Maldives to give special attention to fulfilling their corporate social responsibility.
Dr Waheed said, as the largest water provider in the country, the MWSC was undertaking a great responsibility.
He called on the company to fulfill its social responsibility and keep in mind the greater benefit of the people, while still working to maximise its profit.
Dr Waheed said clean drinking water and more affordable and accessible services for the less fortunate of the country should be given special consideration.
He said access to clean drinking water and adequate sewerage facilities was a Constitutional right of Maldivians, and it is the state’s responsibility to provide these services.
Dr Waheed said the MWSC had been providing clean water for half the population, and added the government established provincial utilities companies to provide for the rest of the population.
Dr Waheed also presented the company’s annual employee awards.
