Wong (standing right) and the longhouse residents give their thumbs up to the installation of first WBA in the area.
SIBU (Dec 1): Sarawak United People’s Party (SUPP) potential candidate for Dudong, Wong Ching Yong, has pledged to improve Wireless Broadband Access (WBA) if given the chance to become their assemblyman.
“I will help to apply for WBA for 15 primary schools 10 Chinese-aided primary schools, two secondary schools and 206 longhouses in the constituency if given the chance to do so,” he said.
Wong said this after witnessing Sarawak Multimedia Authority installing the first WBA at Rumah Mai Sigai in Tengah Assan recently.
He said the WBA in Rumah Mai Sigai was the first of its kind in the constituency.
“The installation is made possible with the help of Assistant Minister of Corporate Affairs and Ukas Datuk Abdullah Saidol after I wrote a letter to him in August 2021 highlighting the predicaments faced by students with no WiFi facilities to join online classes during the Covid-19 pandemic,” he added.
If nominated by Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS), Wong will likely face a multi-cornered fight in the constituency – from Parti Bersatu Sarawak (PSB), Parti Bumi Kenyalang (PBK), Pakatan Harapan (PH), Gasak and also Independent candidates.
