MPP chairman Lo Khere Chiang said they should have greater pride in the appearance of their surroundings.
“Kuching is developing so much into a very vibrant society. I hope everyone takes pride in their surroundings and helps in landscaping and maintaining not just their own compounds but also roadside verges.
“This will make their surroundings more attractive and at the same time beautify Kuching as a whole.
“MPP welcomes property developers who can provide condominium facilities and landscaping maintenance,” he said at the opening of the Instarmac Sales Gallery and the official launching of The Cube yesterday.
He commended property developer Instarmac for the new gated residential development at Jalan Dogan, which is due for completion in 2016.
“I understand the developer will provide top-class facilities within their project including a children’s playground, landscaping, BBQ pits and more.
“By providing and maintaining all these facilities, Instarmac is helping and relieving MPP from maintaining some of the services such as landscaping.
“As the private sector develops residential areas, one of the big challenges we face in the government is to complement the development by improving facilities. We need to improve the roads, sewerage and drainage systems and also public transport system as well as a multitude of other services, while maintaining the natural beauty of our surroundings,” he said.
Lo pointed out that with limited funding it is a big challenge to meet the aspirations of all residents but it can be done through private sector contributions.
“I hope we will continue to work together to make our area and our city more beautiful, especially when we are expecting to welcome more visitors in this Visit Malaysia Year,” he said.
