The inauguration of the completed upgrade of Darul Iman Mosque in Sadong Jaya sub district.

We had the privilege to accompany the right honourable Premier of Sarawak, Datuk Patinggi Tan Sri Abang Johari Tun Abang Haji Openg for the inauguration of the completed upgrade of Darul Iman Mosque in Sadong Jaya sub district. 

Alhamdullilah, we had also performed the Friday prayers together with the local community here. Among our state cabinet ministers who were also present were YB Dato Sri Julaihi Narawi who is Sarawak's Minister of Utilities and Telecommunications and also a Member of the State Legislative Assembly (ADUN) for Sebuyau; YB Datuk Ir Aidel Lariwoo, Deputy Minister of Infrastructure and Port Development Sarawak and also State Assemblyman for Sadong Jaya; YB Datuk Dr Abdul Rahman Junaidi, Deputy Minister of Utilities and Communications, and Islamic Affairs; YB Datuk Rubiah Haji Wang, Deputy Minister of Rural and Regional Development and Member of Parliament for P197 Kota Samarahan as well as YB Datuk Amar Abu Bakar Marzuki, Sarawak State Secretary and other dignitaries including YB Dato' Fazzrudin Haji Abdul Rahman who is Chief Political Secretary to Sarawak’s Premier.

In his speech, our Premier had mentioned that the local folks of Samarahan can look forward to upgraded electricity supply from single-phase to three-phase in their homes soon. This is because our government had commited over RM150 million to enhance the electricity grid network in the region. 

Our premier had also shared on how the quality of life has progressed, with households now using more modern electrical appliances compared to the past when our folks were cautious about using just a cloth iron, so our homes only had single-phase electricity, as we only needed to power a refrigerator and an iron. 

He further emphasised that the upgrading of electricity supply is crucial as more households are now using high-powered appliances which require better electricity supply and no more experiencing power trips.
