I was given the privilege to represent our Right Honourable Premier of Sarawak, Datuk Patinggi Tan Sri Abang Johari Bin Tun Abang Openg at the official launching of "Karnival Jom Heboh Segulai Sejalai Sarawak" recently held at Celebration Square in Petra Jaya, Kuching on 26 to 28 January.
I have also delivered his text of speech and conveyed to the audience on our state government's support for the organising of social programmes and events which will benefit the local folks. Such programmes and events can also contribute to the local economy and tourism sector in the state.
Hence, the state government through the Ministry of Tourism, Creative Industry and Performing Arts Sarawak (MTCP) is supporting the organising of "Karnival Jom Heboh (KJH)" event and kudos to the organisers for holding various interesting activities here for every member of our society.
We welcome the staging of the carnival which had emphasised the concept of togetherness and inclusivity that is synonymous with the state of Sarawak. The event themed "Segulai Sejalai Sarawak" was well received due to the efforts of the organisers in highlighting it.
Such concept has been ingrained with the people of Sarawak for a long time. It is expressed through the nature of togetherness and inclusiveness in celebrating the diversity of ethnicity, religion and race along with the phrase ‘Segulai Sejalai".
Our Premier had also congratulated the organisers for providing a platform for entrepreneurs from 132 stalls to promote their products and goods in which many local entrepreneurs from all over Sarawak can participate while at the same time are able to generate income.
