Sibu Municipal Council (SMC) in Sarawak hopes to get funding from Federal Government to instal more LED streetlights in and around town.

In his address at the local council’s fullboard meeting, chairman Clarence Ting said the RM1.3mil it had secured from Sarawak government was not sufficient for the installation of LED lights beyond commercial areas and main roads.
