The Ministry of Health urged the public to help increase blood supplies in the country, which are currently at a critically low level.
Donors from blood groups A, B and AB are urgently needed, the ministry added.
Donors can visit the Blood Donation Centre or nearest blood bank from 8am to 11.30am and 1.30pm to 3.30pm on working days.
The Blood Donation Centres under the Laboratory Services Department will also organise campaigns for public participation.
