PAITAN: The Mobile Community Services (MCS) programme led by the Sabah Treasury is proving effective in rural outreach, providing direct access to various government agencies, said Community Development and People's Wellbeing Minister Datuk James Ratib. Speaking at the MCS event at the Paitan District Office on Saturday, James said the initiative helps identify departments not yet permanently stationed in Paitan, which was recently declared a full district. He welcomed news that a District Education Officer will be permanently placed in Paitan, easing residents' administrative processes. Also present were Paitan District Officer Joe Joloning Majambu and Federal Financial Officer Norali @ Ag Norali Ag Damit. Norali noted that 36 agencies participated in the Paitan MCS, with upcoming programmes scheduled in Kota Marudu (June 18 and 21) and Pulau Jambongan, part of 12 MCS locations across Sabah.
