SARIKEI (May 14): The newly completed RM147.25-million 12-storey Sarawak Government Administrative Centre for the Sarikei Division will house around 500 civil servants from various state departments and agencies. Sarawak State Secretary Datuk Amar Mohamad Abu Bakar Marzuki said the consolidation of these state departments under one roof will enable key services to be delivered to the public more easily, quickly, and efficiently. Describing the facility as both a symbol of Sarikei's progress and a key driver of its development, Mohamad Abu Bakar said that the centre reflects the state government's commitment to modernising public service infrastructure. 'This new administrative centre is not only a symbol of Sarikei's progress but also plays a vital role in supporting the rapid development of the division. 'The Service Sarawak Centre and Sarawak Government Counter located on the ground floor of the building are digital service hubs based on the 'Whole-of-Government' concept,' he said during the official launching ceremony of the Sarawak Government Administrative Centre for Sarikei Division today. The centre was officially launched today by Sarawak Premier Datuk Patinggi Tan Sri Abang Johari Tun Openg. Also in attendance were Deputy Premiers Datuk Amar Awang Tengah Ali Hasan and Datuk Amar Douglas Uggah Embas, as well as Deputy Minister of Natural Resources and Environmental Sustainability Dato' Sri Huang Tiong Sii. According to Mohamad Abu Bakar, the centre offers a wide range of services to the public, including bill and tax payments, license and permit applications, status checks for government applications, registration for small businesses and entrepreneurs, applications for welfare and social assistance, and access to advisory and information services. He said this integrated approach enhances efficiency, saves time and resources, and aligns with the government's 'One-Stop Customer Centric Service Delivery' model focused on convenience and impact. 'This center will be a major catalyst for inclusive development in Sarikei, in line with our aspirations to enhance the public service delivery system to be efficient, sustainable, and impactful,' he said. He also revealed that the Sarawak government has approved 46 new administrative building projects under the 12th Malaysia Plan, with a total allocation of approximately RM1.2 billion. Of these, five are Integrated Administrative Centres (IACs) at the divisional level. To date, 16 new administrative buildings have been completed across various districts and sub-districts, including the Sarikei IAC.
