Call to give town dwellers incentives to grow plants
Published on: Sunday, November 23, 2014
KENINGAU: The District Council should take the cue from Paris, famous for its foliage, by encouraging its town dwellers and business operators to plant flowers instead of wasting money to pay contractors to keep the town beautiful.Bingkor Star Information Chief Henry Fung said the council could, in return, give incentives in the form of subsidies to those who took up the challenge."The current system benefits only a few people. Why not give the money to the citizens of this town to plant flowers. That's how they can show their love towards their own town," he said.
