ESOFT Metro Campus and Sirasa TV donate computer lab to Athugalpura Prince College Kurunegala

ESOFT Metro Campus, which has launched the ‘e-Thilina’ community service oriented initiative in partnership with Sirasa Television, donated a fully-fledged computer laboratory with internet and other modern facilities to the Athugalpura Prince College Kurunegala recently.

The ceremonial opening of the modern computer laboratory at the Athugalpura Prince College Kurunegala, was held under the patronage of ESOFT Group of Companies Group Managing Director Dr. Dayan Rajapakse, ESOFT Metro Campus Chief Executive Officer Nishan Sembacuttiaratchy, ESOFT Metro Campus Kurunegala Centre Manager Sachithra Wanninayake, ESOFT Metro Campus Assistant Manager Branch Operations Harsha Ravindra, Sirasa TV Director Sales S. Skanderkumar, Sirasa TV Executive Program Sanath Nandana, MBC, MTV Sales Manager Daminda Nissanka, Brigadier Sanath Embowala and Athugalpura Prince College Kurunegala Principal Y.K. Kumara Withana.
