KUCHING: Minister of Tourism, Arts, Culture, Youth and Sports Datuk Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah feels that the whole stretch of the Kuching Waterfront should be managed by a single entity.

Currently, he said the Kuching Waterfront is jointly managed by Sarawak Economic Development Corporation (SEDC) and Kuching North City Commission (DBKU) “which does not make sense”.

“I feel that there should not be more than one entity to manage the Kuching Waterfront properly as it may affect the development and tourism plans in the area,” he suggested at the Chap Goh Mei festival at India Street Pedestrian Mall on Wednesday night.
