KUCHING: Information Department (JaPen) staff members have been told to collect public views on the Malaysian Family (Keluarga Malaysia) concept, do research on it and hold informative gatherings at the grassroots level.
The call came from secretary general of the Ministry of Communication and Multimedia (KKMM) Datuk Seri Mohammad Mentek in his address to JaPen officers in the management and professional group during a visit to JaPen Sarawak Headquarters at Jalan Diplomatik off Jalan Bako yesterday.
