沈桂贤：实都东小贩中心成为楷模
砂地方政府部及房屋部部长拿督沈桂贤强调，通过古晋南市市议会和小贩们的配合，实都东小贩中心已成为全砂的楷模！ 他表示，实都东小贩中心甚至比行动党执政的槟城州内各大小贩中心还要卓越。 “实都东小贩中心已经是全州的模范。这是大家跟南市配合取得的成就，是你们的骄傲和光荣。很多国家的代表团都观摩实都东小贩中心，你们做得很好。” 沈桂贤是在古晋南市市长拿督曾长青陪同下，与实都东小贩进行交流时，发表谈话。 他指出，本身在槟城住过四年，可以信誓旦旦宣告槟城州并没有一个小贩中心能比实都东小贩中心更卓越。 “槟城州已由行动党执政10年，但是小贩中心依然是老旧，没有翻新和提升，可见换政府有新希望只是嘴巴说说。实都东小贩中心做得比槟城州的更好，是大家的功劳，毕竟只靠政府，是不会有这样的成就。” 与此同时，他提醒小贩们，每个人都要与南市紧密配合，把小贩中心当作是自己的家，而非认为与自己无关。 “每个人都不会让自己的家变得很差，营业环境犹如家，别人就乐意来。”

程明智：首相阐明候选人来自成员党
砂拉越首长署政治秘书程明智表示，首相兼国阵主席拿督斯里纳吉上星期六在太子世界贸易中心与所有国阵成员党为第十四届全国选举所举行的汇报会上已清楚阐明，所有有算胜的候选人必须来自国阵成员党，他们将代表国阵出征国选，以协助国阵赢得议席。 他针对联民党青年团团长佐尼戈拉绒发表的言论做出回应。后者早前在媒体上表示，纳吉的言论显示是挑选任何有胜算的候选人协助国阵赢得选举。 程明智反驳说，上星期闭门会议有关胜算候选人的问题，非常清楚也不会混淆，原因非常简单，这项闭门会议只允许所有13个国阵成员党出席，因此纳吉向出席者传达的信息也只针对国阵成员党。 “即便佐尼戈从其他管道获悉纳吉的演词内容，但我可以保证，这不是针对他（佐尼戈）或他的政党（联民党），所以如果没有出席当时的会议，请不要误解纳吉的谈话内容。” 与此同时，程明智表示，砂拉越人民联合党主席拿督沈桂贤已多次强调，欢迎联民党党员回归人联党，甚至可以成为候选人，出征由国阵分配给人联党的议席。

砂督吊桥25日动工
耗资805万令吉的砂督吊桥重建工程将于本月25日（星期三）下午3时，邀请首长阿邦佐哈里出席在砂督库巴利雅美丹市集举行的砂督吊桥重建动土礼。 砂督吊桥重建工程隶属砂基本设施发展与交通部工程之一，并在公共工程局监督下施工。该吊桥建设也将保持昔日原貌，同时吊桥设施亦会进一步提升，方便船只川行。 砂督吊桥重建工程除了旨在吸引游客外，同时也方便民众日后可以通过该吊桥从砂督徒步越河前往对岸的库巴利雅美丹市集。新的砂督吊桥全长213米及3米宽的人行走道，该吊桥乃采纳英国建筑标准（BS）设计建设，其建设包括主要塔身以固定吊索，同时，吊桥和楼梯两端乃采用不锈及防腐蚀的钢铁进行建设。 原先的砂督吊桥是于1926年建成开放使用，当时吊桥主要是人行走道和输送自来水管用途，偶尔也有轻型交通工具如脚车、三轮车、电单车等通行。惟，该座吊桥因不堪岁月洗礼，于1992年正式关闭使用，同时也在2004年10月7日坍塌。直至今年9月开始进行重建。
沈桂贤：将为砂拉越争取更大渔业权益
砂地方政府与房屋部长拿督沈桂贤强调，将为砂拉越争取更大的渔业权益，如此就无需向联邦陈述报告和争取拨款，进而惠及砂拉越人。 他出席古晋华人渔船公会创会70周年暨敬老晚宴上受邀致词时披露，根据渔业官员告之，沙巴拥有一定的渔业权益，因此砂拉越也要争取。他指出，唯有凝聚力量，才有更大的话语权行影响力，这是大家所必须思考的。 沈桂贤以本身为例子，在去年的州选举获得石角选民的支持，才有机会进入州内阁。 他认为，如今砂拉越的机会来了，大家一定要团结，才能有足够的力量争取。他感叹，华裔人口比例越来越少，若力量再被分散，就什么都没有了。 他认为，砂拉越可向以色列学习，以色列人口仅800万，却有办法在人口众多的阿拉伯地区生存，特别是第二次世界大战很多犹太人死亡，但因为犹太人的团结与“动脑筋”就有办法生存。 他深信，古晋华人渔船公会在团结方面扮演重要角色，应在重要及适当时候抓紧机会发挥，若被分散力量就会一拍两散。 “贵会成立70年为砂人民贡献良多，70年即在我父亲沈庆鸿时代就已存在，与我党（砂人联党）配合得相当好，那时候是讲信用和诚意来保持良好关系。” 他期望在其领导下的砂人联党，可与该会回覆以信用和诚意的关系，将后就会有成绩和效果。

陈超耀希望美里中央菜市场屋顶全替换
砂人联党卑骚区州议员拿督陈超耀律师希望市政局能将中央菜市场的屋顶全部替换，确保小贩民众的安全。 他说，前天的风灾造成屋顶被掀开，证明建筑物上空的构架有问题，假使维修工程只限损坏部分，并不担保未在风灾中损坏的部分是安全的。而且屋顶的构架是肉眼所看不到的，为避免日后同样的事情发生，市政局工程部的确有必要派员深入检查，若有必要应将整个屋顶重新装修。 据市政局工程部官员透露，中央菜市场屋顶维修工程目前已进入招标当中，并将在本星期五开标，下星期一便会进行装修，估计费用不少过2万令吉。 为避免“天窗”下雨时漏水，市政局承包商在风灾后以帆布暂时替代锌片遮盖破洞。 鉴于风灾也造成菜市场电缆破坏，电流供应中断，对小贩生计深表关心的陈超耀，也在今日凌晨2时突访中央菜市场，确保该菜市场的电源已恢复供应，小贩不在点蜡烛卖菜。 陈超耀透露，据他昨天再次联系电力局管理层了解进展时，从负责人口中获悉电力局在风灾后无法在当天恢复电供，乃是茶市场的电表箱在强风扯断电流时断路烧毁。 “电力局技术人员是在完成驳接电缆，检查电表箱时才晓得情况严重，必须耗时更长的时间来修复。”他庆祝电表箱短路着火并没有波及整个小贩中心，否则后果不堪设想。
