“The purpose of the work visit to the proposed RTP special project sites today is to carry out technical inspections, evaluations, and meetings with community leaders in the relevant villages so that the project is implemented according to the needs of the villagers,” Awla stated.

Gratitude to the Sarawak Government

“I hope that this project can be implemented soon to provide comfort and convenience to the villagers in the area,” he added.
