YANG BERHORMAT MENTERI PEMBANGUNAN

ANSWER:

Thank you, Yang Berhormat Yang Di-Pertua. Thank you to Yang Berhormat Dayang Hajah Rosmawatty for the suggestion to make the Rancangan Perumahan Negara Lugu a New Satellite Town.

To answer Yang Berhormat's question, the Ministry of Development through the Housing Development Department has taken an approach to plan and provide specific sites to ensure an inclusive settlement area equipped with public facilities within the national housing area.

For example, in Perumahan Negara Kampong Rimba, various public facilities have been provided, including:

1. A mosque located at Jalan 2 which is still under construction;
2. Rimba Secondary School 1 & Religious School at Jalan 2;
3. Rimba Secondary School 2 at Simpang 39, Jalan Bukit Mahkota;
4. Sultan Haji Hassanal Bolkiah Arabic School at Jalan 2;
5. Primary and Religious School Rimba at Jalan 82;
6. Rimba 2 Primary Religious School at Jalan 3;
7. Rimba 3 Primary and Religious School at Jalan 99;
8. Commercial Site (Rimba Point) at Jalan 2;
9. Post Office at Jalan 2;
10. Fire Station at Jalan 2;
11. Recreational Park at Jalan 2; and
12. Stalls at Jalan 2

Meanwhile, referring to the Master Plan of the Perumahan Negara Kg. Lugu area, a number of land sites have been allocated for the provision of public facilities at the following locations specifically:

1. Mosque site at Jalan Lasuk;
2. Primary and Religious School site at Jalan Lasuk;
3. Commercial site at Jalan Lasuk;
4. Health Center site at Jalan Lasuk;
5. Community Hall site at Jalan Lasuk;
6. Fire Station site at Jalan Lugu;
7. Police Station site at Jalan Lugu;
8. Recreational Park site at Simpang 8-3-12, Jalan Ambin;
9. Community Center site at Simpang 8-3-12, Jalan Ambin; and
10. Stalls site at Simpang 8-3-12, Jalan Ambin

This planning reflects the ongoing commitment of the Government of Kebawah Duli Yang Maha Mulia Paduka Seri Baginda Sultan and Yang Di-Pertuan Negara Brunei Darussalam in ensuring the provision of complete public facilities in line with balanced needs in the housing area.

It should also be explained that the aforementioned plans, InshaAllah, will be made in phases in accordance with the planning and allocations provided later.

Yang Berhormat Yang Di-Pertua, that is all Kaola can convey in response to Yang Berhormat Dayang Hajah Rosmawatty's question. Thank you, Yang Berhormat Yang Di-Pertua.
