“We will work with Unimas (University of Malaysia Sarawak) and UITM (Universiti Teknologi MARA Sarawak branch) by gathering the children in schools to interact with them,” he said in a statement today.

He said good values take priority over expertise and skills among the younger generation today, who will grow to become leaders of the nation.

“This is an opportunity to guide and bring up the young not only to be productive, creative and innovative but also to uphold values like integrity and honesty,” said Minos. — DayakDaily
