Today, he presented a cheque for RM3 million to the Sarawak United Association of Private Chinese Secondary School Management Board, to be distributed to the 14 Chinese private schools in the state.
"This is the beginning, next year there will be more," he said at the event held at the Chung Hua Middle School No 1, Kuching.
He said although education came under the federal government’s jurisdiction, it did not hamper the state government from providing aid to the schools concerned. – Bernama
