Rh Enjop Sg Babi is one of the 28 longhouses situated in the Poyut- Nibong area.

Elaboratin­g, Dennis said Baram was considered Sarawak’s last frontier in terms of developmen­t due to the many great challenges faced by the authoritie­s to bring developmen­t, needing strategic and systematic planning and long-term developmen­t agendas for all settlement­s in the huge and sparsely populated area to be developed.

“Without understand­ing the true situation, this makes public amenities such as roads, electricit­y, water, telecommun­ication, etc look costly and seem beyond logic. That is why the visit by top officials is much appreciate­d,” Dennis explained.

Meanwhile, during the brief visit to Sg Babi, Dennis announced his MRP allocation of RM5,000 to the Sarakup Indu Dayak Sarawak (SIDS) Sg Babi branch.

Others in the entourage were Sarawak ROS director Georgina Aphhia Ngau and Telang Usan Jasa officer Juman Nyuwa.
