Don’t neglect your roots, Abg Jo tells Melanaus. [Newspaper] (2019)



Abstract

SIBU: The Melanau Association Sibu (PMS) should strive to develop the Melanau community without neglecting their roots, says Chief Minister Datuk Patinggi Abang Johari Tun Openg. “This include efforts to assist in preserving and conserving their traditional culture so as not to be overtaken by the waves of modernisation,” he said when officiating at the 60th anniversary of PMS on Saturday night. Abang Johari’s text-of-speech was read out by Assistant Minister for Urban Planning, Land Administration and Environment Datu Len Talif Salleh, who represented him, to officiate at the function. The Chief Minister added that the Melanau community needed to be continuously united and assist one another to build up strength so that they could compete with the other races.
