KUCHING: The State Forestry Department can look forward to a pleasant surprise on the last day of the second session of the Sarawak State Legislative Assembly (DUN) sitting on Nov 13.
Chief Minister Datuk Patinggi Abang Johari Tun Openg said the Sarawak Forest Department (FDS) and Sarawak Forestry Corporation (SFC) have been doing a great job in looking after the forest resources, thus, he is grateful and wants to give them something to show his appreciation.
“All of you here are concerned about the environment and have worked hard to look after our forests in Sarawak.
“On behalf of the state government, I would like to convey our appreciation to you. Within a week, there will be an expression of gratitude that we want to offer you,” he said in his speech during the Forest Fun Run (FFR) 2019 in conjunction with department’s 100th anniversary at the State Library yesterday.
When met after the function, the chief minister was asked to elaborate further on what is he going to give the Forestry Department.
“Just wait. In eight more days, I will announce it during my winding up speech (during the DUN sitting),” he said.
