SIMANGGANG: Construction works on a 70-metre concrete bridge crossing the Sungai Undop in Kampung Beleti has commenced.
According to Simanggang assemblyman, Datuk Francis Harden Hollis, the plan for RM4.2 million project was initiated in 2018, prior to receiving approval from the Sri Aman Development Agency (SADA).
