KUCHING: The state government has decided to follow the decision of the federal government in declaring April 24 as a public holiday in Sarawak.
This is in line with the decision of the federal government to assign April 24 as a public holiday in conjunction with the coronation of the Yang Dipertuan Agong XV Sultan Muhammad V, said a press statement released by the Chief Minister’s Office on Tuesday morning.
The announcement came after a state protocol department spokesperson said that the State Secretary’s Office will normally make the announcement, should there be an extra public holiday for Sarawak.
