According to a Sarawak Public Communications Unit (Ukas) news report today, Deputy Minister of Education, Innovation, and Talent Development-cum-Simanggang assemblyman Datuk Francis Harden Hollis stated that the project was planned in 2018 before it was approved by Sri Aman Development Agency (SADA) at a cost of RM4.2 million.

The minister made the remarks during the ground-breaking ceremony for the project yesterday (March 5) in Sri Aman.
