SANTUBONG will be the pioneer for the Fisheries Development Authority of Malaysia’s (LKIM) housing assistance scheme for the local fishermen folks in Sarawak with an allocation on RM1.46 million.

Deputy Speaker of Parliament Datuk Dr Haji Wan Junaidi Tuanku Jaafar who is also Member of Parliament for Santubong said this adding that he felt proud that his constituency was chosen as the pioneer for this programme in Sarawak.

“This allocation (RM1.46 million)is a part from the RM100 million allocation announced by our Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak which is to uplift the living standard of the fishermen folks across Malaysia, particularly to provide them with houses  or repairing their houses.”

JunaidI said this to reporters during an interview after officiating the Persatuan Nelayan Kawasan (PNK) Satang Biru AGM 2012 at Kampung Telaga Air community Hall at Telaga Air near the city here yesterday morning.

He explained that from the allocation will be used either to build or repair about 140 houses listed in the programme located in the areas of PNK Satang Biru, PNK Sematan, PNK Buntal and PNK Tanjung Datu which were in the Santubong Parliamentary constituency and all the construction or repairs on these houses would be completed within this year.

Earlier in his speech, Junaidi reminded the people to appreciate all the various assistance provided to them as the government’s effort of enhancing the people’s living standard to a better level.

“We Malaysian are very fortunate that the present government are always concern on its people hence, had introduced so many community-friendly programmes as the government understands the hardship of its people.”

“There is no other government in the other countries in this world is capable to the Malaysian Government which had provided its people with these subsidies and assistance therefore, the people should not take for granted of what we had enjoyed but instead keep on supporting the government so that these subsidiaries could be continued.”

“As for myself, I can understand the hardship experienced by the fishermen folks as I came from a poor fisherman family and in addition, my father had passed away when I was only nine-year-old so I can imagine how the fishermen folks appreciate every single assistance from the government; from the living allowances, diesel subsidies and ohers,” expressed Junaidi.

On another matter, he advised all the PNKs in his parliamentary to propose to LKIM to scrap any policy which they find irrelevant to its members. He was referring to “situation’ where a PNK member who wanted to transfer his boat licence to a new boat had to “dispose” his old boat before the license transferring process.

“To tell you the truth, this policy is a bit irrelevant as the old boat is still usable and be given or sold to others who have no boats instead of wasting them by disposing the vessel and this is one of the policy that should be reviewed.

Also present at the PNK Satang Biru AGM were Rizal Sahari, who represents Sarawak LKIM director, PNK Satang Biru Chairman Bohari Ganti , Kampung Telaga Air Villagehead Morshidi Junaidi with more than 300 PNK Satang Biru members.
