: The Sarawak state government will be the first state to provide initial financing for federal projects in the state to speed up their implementation, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim announced here today.
He added that the cooperation, which is of historical significance, would begin with the implementation of the Sarawak Cancer Centre here. “I agree, we use a new method, where Sarawak can start the construction first, we cover the expenses later through the federal government. We begin the construction and development of this cancer hospital as soon as possible,” he said during his speech at the Sarawak MADANI Buka Puasa event at Al-Muttaqin Mosque here today.
The new method, he added, had been agreed upon as the Sarawak government could begin the project faster at a lower cost. “If we look at the usual method, it takes time, high costs. The Sarawakians said, it’s okay, we will help, we have several plans on starting the project,” he said.Police bust syndicate, seize drugs worth RM10.3 mln
