State Pharmaceuticals Corporation of Sri Lanka

The State Pharmaceuticals Corporation (SPC) of Sri Lanka is a big group of people who work together to make sure people in Sri Lanka have access to medicine when they're sick. They do this by buying medicine from drug companies all over the world and then selling it to hospitals and pharmacies in Sri Lanka.

Think of the SPC as a big store that sells medicine to people who need it. Just like how you go to a store to buy snacks and toys, the hospitals and pharmacies go to the SPC to buy medicine for their patients.

The SPC also makes sure that the medicine they sell is safe and effective. They check the quality of the medicine before they buy it so they can be sure it won't make people sicker instead of better.

The SPC is run by the government of Sri Lanka, which means it's like a big team of people who work for the leaders of the country. They want to make sure that everyone in Sri Lanka has access to medicine when they need it, no matter where they live or how much money they have.

So the next time you or someone you love gets sick, remember that there are people like the SPC working hard to make sure that medicine is available to help them feel better.
