: Sarawak requires RM17 billion to comprehensively upgrade and redevelop all its healthcare facilities, according to Deputy Health Minister Datuk Lukanisman Awang Sauni.

“This RM17 billion figure was presented to the Prime Minister by the Sarawak government. It is not just for replacing clinics but also for all healthcare facilities in Sarawak. He told reporters this after the launch of the Agenda Nasional Malaysia Sihat Tour Series and the ASEAN Dengue Day celebration for the Kuching Division here today.

Several dilapidated clinics listed for upgrades this year, such as the Singai Health Clinic in Bau, also require a larger budget as they need to be demolished and rebuilt.
