Significant Progress in School Rebuilding Project

KUCHING (June 12) — The rebuilding works on SK Jalan Haji Baki in Padawan are projected to reach full completion by July. As of now, the construction progress stands at an impressive 91.83 per cent, surpassing the initially scheduled milestone of 90.83 per cent.

Government Commitment Under 11th Malaysia Plan

Deputy Works Minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Maslan announced that the project, approved under the 11th Malaysia Plan (11MP), has a budget of RM18.18 million. “I consider the old buildings, with wood structures, are already in a dilapidated state. That’s why the government decided to construct a new school complex for SK Jalan Haji Baki,” he stated during a press conference following a site inspection yesterday. “We hope it can be completed soon,” he added.
