KUCHING: The ‘KEMAS4U Semarak Desa’ carnival will help to bring the various of government service agencies closer to the people.
Natural Resources and Environment Minister Datuk Seri Dr Haji Wan Junaidi Tuanku Jaafar said that besides bringing government services to the people, the carnival would also help to foster the relationship between the government and the people.
“This relationship between the people and government agencies must continue to be strengthened, and for this, the Community Development Department (KEMAS) has to play its role,” said he said when officiating at the KEMAS4U Carnival held at Kampung Hijrah at Jalan Bako, yesterday.
He said the public should utilise all the services provided by government agencies at any government-related carnival.
Wan Junaidi said event such as this should also be organised in other villages so that the people there would benefit from the carnival.
“I am confident that through this event, the public will be exposed to latest information and services provided by government agencies. Besides that, this also shows that the government is keeping its promises, putting people first,” he said.
He also hoped that the event would be held in other zones such as Muara Tuang and the surrounding areas.
Also present were Datin Seri Fiona Sim, Kuching District Officer Ibrahim Kipli, acting director of state Kemas Monalizawati Abang Ismail and other distinguished guests.
