KUCHING: Padawan Municipal Council (MPP) will continue to enhance its efficiency although its resources are limited, assured its chairman Lo Khere Chiang.

Speaking at the council’s appreciation dinner for former councillors and also press night 2014 at The Sarawak Club here on Monday, Lo said one example of such endeavour by MPP was in its privatisation strategy.

The council, he pointed out has a very good team of councillors and MPP had performed well so far for which every staff member should be proud of.

The council, he added had succeeded in bridging the gap with the people. Lo also commended the council secretary Michael Saweng on the Resident Councillorship System resulting in the councillors now being very active on the ground.

“I know there are still a lot to be done in areas like drainage, roads, and other facilities in MPP areas. So we must highlight all these to the authorities for more funds to carry out the necessary projects,” Lo urged the councillors and at the same time thanked the state government for assistance.

MPP, he pointed out had responded well to the people’s requests.

Lo also thanked the former councillors for serving well for the betterment and development of MPP.

The eight ex-councillors were the late Haji Hashim Yap, Chen Chieng Ning, Joseph Sibang ak Riyang, Ponen ak Sanub, Anthony Ramanair, Antony Abang, Olivia Chan and Liu Thian Leong.
