MIRI: A prayer ceremony (majlis doa selamat) in conjunction with the placement of the Sarawak Coastguard Interceptor was held at the Miri Port Authority Crew Change Terminal, yesterday.
According to a press statement, the ceremony was held in conjunction with the commissioning of the Sarawak Coastguard Interceptor boat, which will be tasked with upgrading security control in the waters of the northern ZONE of Sarawak.
