The funding was handed over by YB Dato Ir Lo Khere Chiang, ADUN for State Assembly N13 Batu Kitang, to Chin Fu Methodist Church during a cheque presentation at the cemetery.

The allocation comes under the Rural Transformation Programme (RTP) 2025 and is intended specifically for improvement works involving the access road leading to Chin Fu Methodist Cemetery.

The road upgrade is expected to improve access to the cemetery, which is used by members of the Chin Fu Methodist Church community and visitors.

According to the information provided, the improvement is aimed at making access to the cemetery safer and more convenient for those who need to visit the site.

The RM96,000 allocation represents funding directed towards improving the existing access infrastructure at the cemetery. The project is focused on the road serving the cemetery at Batu 6 in Kuching.

The cheque handover was carried out by Lo as part of the allocation under RTP 2025. The funding was received on behalf of Chin Fu Methodist Church for the planned upgrading work.

Access roads play an important role in allowing members of the public and community groups to reach facilities such as cemeteries. Improvements to such infrastructure can help provide a more suitable route for regular visitors and those attending activities at the site.

For the Chin Fu Methodist community, the project is expected to address access to the cemetery and provide better road conditions once the improvement works are completed.

The cemetery is located at Batu 6, an area within the wider Kuching locality. The project therefore forms part of an infrastructure improvement initiative serving the local community in the Batu Kitang constituency.

The allocation was made under RTP 2025, with the stated purpose of upgrading the access road to Chin Fu Methodist Cemetery. No further details on the construction schedule, scope of individual works or expected completion date were provided.

The RM96,000 cheque handover marks the release of funding for the project and provides the church with the allocation intended for the road upgrade.

The improvement is expected to benefit both members of the church community and other visitors who use the access route to the cemetery.

The project also highlights the role of constituency-level allocations in supporting improvements to local facilities and access infrastructure.

With the funding allocated specifically for the cemetery access road, the planned works are intended to provide a safer and improved route for those travelling to Chin Fu Methodist Cemetery.

The cheque presentation took place at the cemetery at Batu 6, Kuching, with Lo representing the Batu Kitang constituency in the handover of the RM96,000 allocation to Chin Fu Methodist Church.
