“We are proud to partner with Eastern Times and Utusan Sarawak in this awareness project as the papers also cares for the environment and the well-being of the community. With the message presented through this contest, children, and parents as well, will better appreciate their environment and understand that, even through small efforts, we, either as individuals or community, can make big differences to the level of cleanliness in our neighourhoods or cities,” said Lee.
