KOTA KINABALU: Newly appointed Deputy Minister of Tourism, Arts and Culture, Datuk Guandee Kohoi, will look into the erosion issue affecting several river banks in Kuala Penyu.
Guandee said he will make efforts to obtain an allocation from the minister so that the restoration and maintenance of these river banks can be carried out as soon as possible.
