I take my hats off to PEMADAM Sarawak for their initiatives in organising their "Bubur Lambuk" program which had benefited 1,000 recipients in Kuching and in Asajaya district. I also thank them for inviting me to grace the handing over ceremony which was held at the lobby of my office at Level 17, Baitul Makmur II building in Petra Jaya. The program is the first of its kind to be organised by PEMADAM Sarawak and it is aimed to build rapport with the targeted groups especially our local youths who must be alerted on the dangers of drugs and substance abuse.
I also appreciate the support from our partners namely those from Agensi Anti-Dadah Kebangsaan (AADK), Pengasih Malaysia, Kuching Resident Office, Sarawak Education Department and many more for their cooperation in making this year's program a success. Also present during the handing over ceremony were PEMADAM Sarawak's Deputy Chairman, YB Datuk Sharifah Hasidah Sayeed Aman Ghazali who is also our Assistant Minister of Law, State-Federal Relations and Project Monitoring, the director of AADK Sarawak, Encik Wan Madihi and representatives from various recipients.
In my welcoming speech, I have mentioned on the importance of PEMADAM Sarawak in reaching out to its constituents and the target groups especially youths who are in need of proper guidance from all of us as they enter maturity. Members of our community must be aware on the dangers of drugs and substance abuse which can lead to moral decay as well as the destruction of a society when left to its devices.
