KOTA KINABALU: The Sandakan Municipal Council (SMC) must explain in a better way to the people the need to revise the assessment rates in the district which was proposed to begin next year.

Karamunting assemblyman Datuk George Hiew Vun Zin said there was a lack of communication between the local authority and the public over this matter which has led to misunderstandings.
