BETONG: A total of 183 dilapidated school buildings in Sarawak will be restored over the next six to seven years by using the prefabricated Industrialised Building System (IBS), Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak announced Monday.  

The Prime Minister said this method enables one school building block containing six classrooms and a science laboratory to be built within seven to eight weeks, which is much faster than building a totally new school.
