Repair bad roads before floods hit us, urge rural folk

MIRI: Immediate repairs are needed urgently on numerous rural stret- ches of logging roads in interior Sarawak that have been affected by serious erosion, as well as rural bridges that are on the verge of collapsing.

These repairs must be done swiftly before the full onslaught of the landas season or else thousands of interior folks may end up being cut off for prolonged period from the outside world when floods hit, said Rurum Kelabit Association chairman for Miri Division, Dick Bala.
