Federal makes donation towards Philippine's reconstruction
ERJ staff report (TP)
Taipei, Taiwan − Federal Tire announced on 24 December 2013 that it made a contribution of 200 “pieces of tire” to the relief operations in the Philippines.
Because of the damage caused by Typhoon Haiyan (in November 2013), Federal wanted to “express our empathy, based on the strong friendship between our two countries”.
The pieces of tire were donated to one of its Filipino customers, PPC Asia Corporation, as they had developed a “close partnership”.
Federal said: “Through this donation, [we hope] not only to devote ourselves to assist people in the affected areas, but also raise attention from enterprises to [involve] themselves in every possible way of assistance.”
In recognition, PPC awarded Federal a Plaque of Appreciation to show “deep gratitude and continued partnership” in Taiwan on 23 December 2013.
