The Democractic Action Party (DAP) has accepted the challenge of the Sarawak United People’s party (SUPP) to build a new Chinese school, announced MP for Kuching, Chong Chieng Jen.
Chong in a press conference said there are two conditions which the government must accept, to allow a piece of state land for them and relevant licences to be issued for the primary school.
He said his comrade, Voon Lee Shan, DAP State Assemblymnan for Batu Lintang was the one who accept the challenge after the SUPP said it in DUN.
Chong said he had identified a piece of land at Muara Tebas at Sama Jaya which was formally to be used for Chung Hua Primary school No. 2. From what I checked, the land is still under state land and the surrounding was to be used for building apartments.
He said in the next two months, he would asked for a blue print to be drawn which included classes, hall, sports facilities and adminstrative offices. Chong said whatever they do would be transparent including calling for tender and donations from the public.
However, he said despite doing it, he still believed that education should be the responsibility of the government as the people paid taxes. No matte what language of the education, it should be the government to finance it.
