Mobil Cepu Limited Provides Emergency Relief

Cepu -- Since the outbreak of torrential floods in Bojonegoro and Blora Regencies on 27 December 2007, Mobil Cepu Limited (MCL) has continuously provided emergency relief to the people severely affected by the floods. Working closely with the local government and NGOs, MCL provided temporary shelters, basic food supplies, life rafts, mobile medical assistance clinics and clean water.

At the outset, emergency relief was conducted in the most impacted areas in four sub-districts, which include Cepu, Padangan, Kalitidu and Malo. MCL also assisted in evacuating the stranded flood victims in Bojonegoro and Blora.

"This is the severest flood that we have so far experienced in our area of operations in East Java ”, said Michael K. Nelson, MCL's President and General Manager. “We hope that our assistance can ease the level of distress that flood victims are now experiencing. We will continue to assess the situation and provide additional assistance if and where needed."
