SVAB's Waste Paper Recycling Project to be Inaugurated

Plans are afoot by the Seva Vanitha Army Branch (SVAB) to launch a special project for re-cycling of waste paper, set aside in all Army formations across the country on a proposal made by Lieutenant General Jagath Jayasuriya, Commander of the Army to the SVAB.

Proceeds from the environmental friendly project, to be realized in the Sri Lanka Armoured Corps (5 Recce) Pangolla Ironside camp premises are to be used exclusively for welfare work of disable War Heroes, families of fallen War Heroes and other SVAB projects, spearheaded by Mrs Manjulika Jayasuriya, President SVAB.

The SVAB is to sponsor the recycling project and all the construction work of the complex with stores is to be completed by Sri Lanka Engineers Service Regiment troops.  
 
Professor Richard Perera, Consultant lecturer, University of Moratuwa showing his frank appreciation and respect to War Heroes in the Army, has volunteered to provide his expertise to the project free of charge. The SVAB acknowledges his gesture with gratitude.

The project is to be inaugurated shortly on the directions of the SVAB President, the SVAB said.
