“Learning politics is not easy particularly when you have complex circumstances of balancing and fair treatment for all citizens called Sarawakians.

“Thus, we want to train the youth with the culture of ‘belajar, belajar, belajar’ (learn, learn, learn) until you become a leader that will develop Sarawak,” he said during the launch which was broadcast live on Gabungan Parti Sarawak’s (GPS) Facebook page today.

Nevertheless, Abang Johari stressed that youths must have the pre-requisite–knowledge on how to manage the ever-changing era through new technology and green energy.

He also revealed that he will launch an aerospace programme to launch satellites sometime next week.

Amongst those present were PBB deputy presidents Datuk Amar Douglas Uggah Embas and Datuk Amar Awang Tengah Ali Hasan, senior vice presidents Dato Sri Fadillah Yusof and Dato Sri Dr Stephen Rundi Utom, and PBB Belia Dalat chief Muhammad Nur Syafiq Wong Muhammad Nur Amirul Iskandar Wong who is the organising chairman for the PBB Belia Wing launch ceremony. — DayakDaily
