The company on Thursday presented the last chunk of the donation at the brief ceremony that took place at the house of the Sentiasi family.<\/p>\n<p>However, the company\u2019s Chief Executive Officer, MacDonald Wella, assured that they will continue to monitor the health and growth of the triplets in the next coming months.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWEMAS is a health insurance company. And being in the health sector, our aim is to make sure that people are living healthier lives. And that\u2019s why when we heard that there are triplets here, we decided to come and assist after the District Social Welfare Office sounded an SOS,\u201d said Wella.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe will still be visiting them to see how the children are faring. We are happy to see the children growing very well and healthy,\u201d he added. The triplets\u2019 mother, Siwema Joseph, thanked the company for the unwavering support to the welfare of the children.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs a family, we are highly indebted to WEMAS for the great contribution it has made to the health and growth of these children. We couldn\u2019t raise them on our own because we are lacking in many things,\u201d said Joseph.<\/p>\n<p>WEMAS is the only medical scheme in Malawi, which accommodates people above 55 years of age through its pensioners\u2019 medical scheme. It is also the only medical scheme in Malawi, which is using a biometric system, and sits among a few medical schemes in Malawi, which does not charge shortfalls from its customers. The medical insurer now has a network of over 200 hospitals from Nsanje to Chitipa.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/malawi\">Malawi<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Malawi.
