Maliban Biscuit Manufactories (Pvt) Ltd. recently held an event at House of Maliban premises at Ratmalana in order to recognise the value and appreciate the services of their staff.

This was a show of gratitude by the management towards the employees for their continued commitment and dedication, one of the many factors that enabled the company to win the National Quality Award. The employees were given the opportunity to socialise, relax and enjoy the line-up of entertainment that was organised on their behalf.

The programme for the day consisted of several speeches, including a speech by A.G.R. Samaraweera, Chairman of Maliban Group, cultural events to entertain the employees and the launch of a Maliban Song, which was composed recently.

Performances during the day were by the Police Cultural Group, students of the Aesthetics Faculty of the Colombo University, renowned local musician Victor Rathnayake and his sons Jayantha and Dilum Rathnayake.

Incidentally, the Maliban song, which was sung at the event, was composed by Geethanath Kudaligama and performed by Victor Rathnayake. The event also saw employees being presented with tokens of appreciation by the Chairman of Maliban. About 1,525 employees attended the occasion.
