MIRI, Oct 29 — Transport Minister Anthony Loke took his first flight with AirBorneo on a trip from Miri to Limbang, highlighting the importance of rural air connectivity for communities in Sarawak and Sabah.
In a Facebook post on Wednesday, Loke shared photographs of himself on the tarmac with one of the airline’s turboprop aircraft before travelling to Limbang to officiate a local government function.
“Reliable air connectivity is an absolute lifeline for communities in the interior of Sarawak and Sabah.
