Manager responsible for operations at Press Corporation Limited Christopher Guta said the drive is part of the institution\u2019s corporate social responsibility for this year.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe believe in giving back to communities and this is part of our initiative this year,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
He said, meanwhile, the company is pleading with government for a removal of duty on the machinery such as electric pots it intends to import and install at the kitchen.<\/p>\n
