KOTA MARUDU: Sabah Education, Science and Technology Minister Datuk James Ratib has raised serious concern over the long-delayed construction of SMK Langkon, which remains incomplete after 16 years.
About 650 students have been forced to share facilities at SK Langkon since 2010.
“It is deeply disappointing that such an important school project is still unfinished after 16 years.
"The children of Langkon deserve proper educational facilities like others in the state,” he said during a site visit on Sunday.
He stressed that the prolonged delay has affected learning conditions and called for immediate action, adding the matter will be brought to the federal Education Ministry for urgent resolution.
James added that the state will continue monitoring the issue and work with relevant parties to expedite completion, stressing that every child deserves safe, comfortable and quality education.
