PHF recognition by RI President RonBurton at Singapore Intercity Meet

The Rotary Club of Kuching Central was very honoured to be given the opportunity to host the 26th Pan Borneo Inter Club Meet in Kuching, Sarawak.

The Meet attracted a total of 171 participants, which is a record for such an event.

The Pan Borneo Inter Club Meet is a unique event in Rotary District 3310 as it brings together all the Rotary clubs in Sarawak, Sabah, Brunei Darussalam & Labuan F. T. as well as any other interested Rotary clubs in our District and other Districts. We also have participants from Pakistan, Singapore and many parts of West Malaysia. It was a gathering of fun learning and entertainment with lots of opportunities to enjoy fellowship, renewal of friendship and to make new acquaintances. At the same time, Rotarians can do good in the world by implementing a meaningful project that can benefit our local community. After all, Rotary is service through fellowship.

Pan Borneo ProjectIn conjunction with this event, a Rotary Pan Borneo Landscape and Beautification Project was carried out in a prominent area at the Sarawak Heart Centre, Kota Samarahan. As is the tradition of the Pan Borneo Inter Club Meet, this Pan Borneo Project was funded with RM1,000 contribution from each Rotary club located in Pan Borneo. All the 22 clubs in Pan Borneo contributed to the project. The Sarawak Heart Foundation also contributed RM10,000 towards the project.

This project was carried out to complement the refurbishment works that will be carried out on an unused old site building for conversion into a hostel at the Sarawak Heart Centre to provide free accommodations for the poor and underprivileged needy people from the rural areas and those from outside Kuching to stay while attending to their loved ones who are undergoing heart treatment at the Centre.

The site was previously an empty courtyard. The conversion of this area into a landscaped park was to meet the following objectives and provide for the following benefits:

• Create a greater awareness for and promotion of our green environment• Provide for, in an area outside the hospital wards, a tranquil and peaceful environment for the heart patients, where they can relax and to recuperate, and to enjoy the greenery together with their accompanying relatives• Provide a green lung for the doctors and other healthcare providers and an environment where they can relax and recharge in order to enhance their works in the provision of medical care to the patients• As this is a high profile hospital frequently visited by Ministers, VIPs and other dignitaries, the project will enhance the Rotary Brand and create better public awareness of the works we do in Rotary – in doing good in the world.

Community ServiceProject

Goal / Purpose of Project

The purpose of this project is to provide electricity needs to the indigenous rural Iban community at Rumah Panggang, Batang Ai, Sri Adam Division, Sarawak, Malaysia.

Rumah Panggang is about 250km from the capital of Sarawak state, Kuching. It is a very inaccessible Iban longhouse with 10 doors and minimal basic amenities. Water is sourced by diverting nearby shallow streams. Electricity supply is provided by a government sponsored diesel generator set. However, its used is rationed due to the difficulty in sourcing and high cost of diesel supply.

The Solar power project is expected to overcome the logistical challenge of bringing diesel to such an isolated location on a regular basis.The project was implemented in Rotary year 2013-2014, it has now provided a small amount of electricity independently to individual families of the community for basic lighting at any time.
