Kpg Anah Rais a model village free of dengue
KUCHING:
Kampung Anah Rais, which is a tourist longhouse destination, is free
from dengue fever – that’s the good news as Padawan Municipal Council
(MPP) urged villagers to maintain the cleanliness of the model village.
In making the call yesterday, MPP chairman Lo Khere Chiang, said cooperation is crucial.
“We must understand the importance to clean our environment as a preventive measure against dengue because prevention is uppermost.
“So in this case we need to work together,” Lo said when officiating at an anti-dengue ‘gotong-royong’ at the longhouse, about 65 kms away at Jalan Puncak Borneo.
According to him, the council has carried out 102 fogging exercises in MPP jurisdiction, adding that 71 dengue cases were recorded this year.
Lo was glad to note that Kampung Anah Rais was free from dengue fever, thanks to diligent villagers who clean up the area.
Meanwhile, organising chairman Edward Kurik suggested that the villagers organise a cleaning campaign once in three months, while individuals take their own initiative to clean up their locale.
MPP secretary Andrew Joris and Kampung Anah Rais village chief Alex Man Nyawere also present.
