MIRI, Oct 30 — Baram residents are calling for urgent repairs and upgrading of the deteriorating gravel road linking Long Banyok, Long Ekang, Bawang Sibong (Lugan Sibong) and Sebubuh, which serves more than 3,000 people across eight villages and longhouse communities.
Peter Kallang, a Long Ekang resident and SAVE Rivers chairman, said a formal complaint was submitted to the state government on October 10.
“We have submitted a formal complaint calling for urgent repairs and upgrading of the road,” he told The Borneo Post when contacted yesterday.
He added that 256 community members had signed an online petition seeking improvements to the road.
