The Sri Lanka Bureau of Foreign Employment (SLBFE) has extended financial support to build a house for a Sri Lankan woman who had become physically disabled due to an accident while working in Kuwait.
Accordingly, SLBFE officials handed over a sum of money for the house built in Monaragala with the support of the Sri Lanka Bureau of Foreign Employment.
The cash was handed over by SLBFE officials, including Chairman Koshala Wickremasinghe to R.M. Kanthirathna Menike on Saturday (22 Mar).
Living in a thatched-roof house, the SLBFE had assisted with building a house for her at a cost of Rs. 1.75 million under the Sri Lanka Foreign Employment Bureau’s Housing Welfare Program.
Kanthirathna Menike has lost her husband, while her elder daughter serves in the Sri Lanka Army and her younger daughter is awaiting her GCE Advanced Level Examination results. (Newswire)
