MIRI, Sept 10: The Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS) government will strive to ensure that people from both and urban areas benefit from its development projects.

Rosey lauded the event, which was celebrated by the Chinese and other races.
“This shows that mutltiracial groups in Sarawak can live together in harmony. Political and economic stability allows the government to carry out its development agenda,” she said.
