KUCHING, Sept 18 — A Bill will be tabled during the next State Legislative Assembly sitting in November to set up the sovereign wealth fund, said Datuk Patinggi Tan Sri Abang Johari Tun Openg.

“Also, I hope that one day we can provide free tertiary education to all Sarawakians. This is the dream,” he said this in speech when officiating the closing ceremony of Land and Survey Department’s Innovation and Integrity Day 2022 at a local hotel last night. He said the government had passed new laws during the previous DUN sittings, including amending the state Constitution to reflect the changing lifestyle of the people.

The state government could also utilise the huge water bodies located in the water reservoirs located statewide to install floating solar panels and generate energy to meet the demands of the private sector, he added. Meanwhile, the state Land and Survey Department director Datu Abdullah Julaihi said their department had been continuously innovating to improve on their work processes and service delivery.
