Kota Kinabalu: The State Government welcomes the Radio Sabah Alumni Association’s (Rasa) proposal to reclaim Wisma Radio Sabah and its site. 

Its President Datuk Gan Po Tiau said Rasa is also prepared to collaborate with the Government on efforts to maintain and conserve the Wisma Radio Sabah for the purpose of up-scaling it into a museum or broadcasting gallery. 

He said Rasa paid a courtesy call on Hajiji Monday during which they discussed matters regarding the State Government’s acquisition of the Wisma Radio Sabah site and building at Jalan Tuaran Km 2.4, which was an old site of the Radio Television Malaysia (RTM) Sabah building. 

“Wisma Radio Sabah still remains on the site following Rasa’s initiative in 2016, even after the entire site was handed over to the National Audit Department by the Federal Government.
