Coincidentally, after receiving the financial boost from Ramu NiCo with their comeback, the Madang Football Club hosted the Sepik Football Club and the Hekari United FC that weekend at the Laiwaden Oval in Madang.
This support was made possible through the company’s ongoing efforts in stepping into fund and or co-fund activities including sports and others in the province, the Company sees fit for it to assist.
This sort of assistance given, ties well with Ramu NiCo’s theme of “One Ramu NiCo, One Community.”
Ramu NiCo’s Vice President Meng Deyong said sports is very important in keeping youths occupied and that is one of the main reasons why the Company is always willing to support sports related programs in the province.
Ramu NiCo’s Corporate Office general manager Charlie Hu said, “We have been here for more than 10 years and that’s why Ramu NiCo always considers and hears the young people when they seek assistance with programs like this.”
He said Ramu NiCo is proud to assist in sporting activities especially for the young generation who can grow their sporting careers through Ramu NiCo’s sponsorship and sponsored programs in the province.
“So, it’s a good example of Ramu NiCo, staying with the local community, the province and the country through sponsorship programs.” Hu added.
