Sarawak govt depts to accept letters in English

By SHARON LING

KUCHING: Government departments in Sarawak will have to entertain correspondence in English now that the use of the language has been made official.

According to state Land Develop­ment Minister Tan Sri James Masing, letters written in English had occasionally been ignored in the past as there was no official directive on using the language.
