Uphold ‘Segulai Sejalai' spirit to ensure devt continuity, MP calls on Kapit folks
Nanta delivers his speech at the longhouse. — Photos from Facebook/ Alexander Nanta Linggi KUCHING (July 7): Kapit MP Datuk Seri Alexander Nanta Linggi has called upon the people in the constituency to continue with the spirit of 'Segulai Sejalai' (united in moving forward) in politics to ensure continuity of development plans in the area. The Kapit Division, said the federal Works Minister, was once left behind from the development trend. 'But it has now begun to move forward with many infrastructure projects. 'Mega projects are being and will be implemented for the well-being and prosperity of the people,' he said in a Facebook post, uploaded in connection with a 'Leader With People' programme at Rumah Edison Bugap, Sungai Melekun in Baleh last Saturday, which gathered 124 'Tuai Rumah' (longhouse chieftains). According to Nanta, the projects in Kapit include the construction of a bridge across Batang Rajang from Nanga Yong costing over RM300 million, the works on a road spanning over 2.5km meant to connect Song and Kapit districts, and other road projects to be built by the Ulu Rajang Development Agency (URDA). 'The government is building a road from Nanga Tulie directly to the Batang Rajang Bridge, not far from Nanga Yong. 'Upon completion, it will link to the roads to the upriver areas such as those in Sungai Melipis, Sungai Menuan and Sungai Ibau. 'Other projects include the construction of the Kolej Profesional Mara, the construction of a new police station, and the Bukit Goram national secondary school. 'The government has also approved the construction of a hotel, the construction of the Bujang Berani Square and several other development projects that will, directly and indirectly, benefit the community in Kapit,' said the Kapit MP. Nanta performs the ribbon-cutting ceremony to mark the completion of the iron jetty and cement road projects. On his right is Nyabong. On the event at Rumah Edison, Nanta hailed the success in gathering 124 chieftains as 'clear evidence of the people's full support for the leaders of Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS) in Kapit'. The event, held in conjunction with the inauguration of the works on the iron jetty and cement road, was attended by around 1,000 local residents. Nanta added: 'This event is also evidence of the strong cooperation of the community with government agencies and departments; thus, reflecting strong support for the Madani Government. 'Indirectly, it also shows the strong support of the people, especially those in the Pelagus state constituency, to me as the member of Parliament for P215 Kapit, and the Minister of Works at the federal government level, as well as support for the Pelagus assemblyman Wilson Nyabong Ijang.' At the event, Nanta and Nyabong also announced the hall construction project at Rumah Edison. 'I also announce a contribution of RM857,000 to over 60 longhouses, with assistance of RM500 per 'bilek' (household). 'The assistance is not only in appreciation of the presence of the chieftains with the JKKKs (village security and development committees) at the event – it is also a sign of appreciation for the unwavering support of the people in the Pelagus and Kapit constituencies for the GPS-led government and the Madani Government,' added Nanta. alexander nanta linggi community development Segulai Sejalai

127 Kota Anggerik Haj Pilgrims Receive Muassasah Incentive
SHAH ALAM, July 6 (Bernama) -- A total of 127 individuals from the Kota Anggerik state constituency, who performed the recently concluded haj pilgrimage, each received RM1,000 through the 1446H/2025 haj muassasah incentive, which was open for applications from April 22 to July 25. Selangor Youth, Sports and Entrepreneurship Committee chairman Mohd Najwan Halimi, who is also the Kota Anggerik assemblyman, said that the incentive was part of the state government's ongoing efforts, through Menteri Besar Selangor Incorporated (MBI Selangor), to assist first-time haj pilgrims. 'This initiative is aimed at easing the financial burden of first-time haj pilgrims, and this year, all eligible recipients will receive RM1,000, compared with RM500 in previous years. 'All recipients have been thoroughly screened and confirmed eligible, after submitting their applications at the Kota Anggerik state assemblyman's office since last April,' he told reporters after presenting the incentives to recipients at the Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Mosque, here, today. The Selangor government, through Menteri Besar Selangor Incorporated (MBI Selangor), has allocated RM6 million for the haj muassasah incentive this year. At the same time, Mohd Najwan announced that his office had also channelled community assistance, amounting to RM60,000, to 10 recipients, including individuals, non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and residents' associations in the Kota Anggerik constituency, who are actively contributing to the local community. 'Most of the recipients are residents' associations that actively organise community activities, such as gotong-royong and welfare programmes. We hope that this assistance will encourage them to continue their efforts more effectively,' he said. Meanwhile, one of the muassasah incentive recipients, Abu Hassan Darusman, 61, expressed his gratitude for the state government's efforts to ease the financial burden of performing the haj, for himself and six other family members. He said that the assistance would help cover his children's education expenses, as well as the cost of necessities over the next few months.
