We thank the Sarawak Government for allocating a sum of RM387,00 which involves special grants to registered local tour guides and national park guides who were affected by the cancellation of visits by local and domestic tourists as well as the drop in demand for their sergives in the coming months.
The financial assistance is the sixth measure in the Bantuan Khas Sarawakku Sayang 3.0 #BKSS which was announced by our Right Honourable Chief Minister earlier this afternoon. We are deeply touched by the kind gesture by the State Government in giving a helping hand to our local tourist guides and national park guides especially when jobs are hard to come by due to the #Covid19 pandemic.
The State Government is fully aware many of the guides are badly affected by the turn of events lately and each of our 145 registered guides will be given a one-off RM1,500 cash assistance that is aimed to lessen theie financial burden.
