The Metallurgical Corporation of China Limited (MCC), the country’s largest steel structure producer, has sent Chinese technicians on a charter flight operated by Air China to Karachi. 

The team comprising of 78 Chinese technicians along with a consignment volume of 1.7 tons carrying urgently-needed epidemic prevention supplies and treatment medicines, including medical masks, protective suits, infrared thermometers and glucometers was sent to ensure projects under the timely execution of the CPEC projects, it was reported. 

These staff had returned home for the Chinese New Year holidays earlier this year and remained stuck up there due to the COVID-19 pandemic and moratorium on flights. 

In order to prevent and control the epidemic, the company has taken a series of measures aimed at ensuring smooth operation of the projects. 

All the workers in Saindak mining area, both of Chinese as well Pakistani origin, were maintaining sound health and spirit, the company reckoned.
