He said the Sandakan Municipal Council (MPS) should reassess and draw up a comprehensive plan to repair the damaged bridges in Kampung Pukat to ensure the safety of the villagers.
“The bridges that are worn out and damaged by eroded by seawater are very dangerous because they can collapse at any time and endanger the safety of villagers,” he said this after inspecting the condition of the collapsed bridges with Sandakan Municipal Council (MPS) engineers in Kampung Pukat.
