BN government committed to developing Sarawak – Wan Junaidi

-

KUCHING: The Barisan Nasional ( BN) government, both at state and federal levels, is always committed to developing Sarawak in line with advancemen­ts happening globally.

In pointing this out, Santubong BN candidate Datuk Seri Wan Junaidi Tuanku Jaafar said the whole state is not short of developmen­t projects.

“Santubong is not left out as we can see developmen­t projects constantly kicked off from time to time,” he said.

“As long as the people give the mandate, BN with a proven track record has the formula and knows how to develop Santubong further, more than what we are seeing today,” he elaborated.

Wan Junaidi, who is Natural Resources and Environmen­t Minister, cited the Pan Borneo Highway which passes Tanjong Datu as another game changer for the constituen­cy.

“There will be economic opportunit­y both for Lundu and Sematan, and it is clear that with developmen­t, comes economic activities,” said Wan Junaidi.

He was speaking at the launching of Jambatan Siru Melayu at Sematan yesterday.

The RM5.74-million bridge connects Kampung Siru Melayu to Kampung Sebat Pueh and will enable easier access for villagers once the Pan Borneo Highway is completed.

Tanjong Datu assemblywo­man Datuk Amar Jamilah Anu was at the ceremony.
