Different challenge for new SUDC boss

Kota Kinabalu: New Sabah Urban Development Corporation Sdn Bhd (SUDC) Chairman Jamawi Jaafar said the trust given by the State Government to carry out his duties as chairman of a government-linked company is a new challenge.

 He said the duties and responsibilities were outside his skills in agriculture but he thought it was a new challenge that would prompt him to think outside the box.

 “I consider this a new challenge, but with the existing management and experienced in cultivating the concept of teamwork, I am confident this task and responsibility can be well implemented,” said Jamawi after receiving his appointment letter.

 Jamawi, who is also the former Kemabong Assemblyman thanked the State government under the leadership of Chief Minister Datuk Seri Hajiji Mohd Noor for the confidence in him.

 He hoped the concept of teamwork in the organisation would continue to be a culture not only in management but also at the foot level.

 “The success of this organisation is not only the full responsibility of the top management but all parties need to adopt a team work culture to place SUDC as one of the government-linked companies in the state in creating more excellent success in the future,” added Jamawi.
