“Those who do not have the MySejahtera application or do not have access to internet facilities are requested to register through the following four channels, namely through the District Offices; Village heads, Kapitan and Tuai Rumah who will be assisted by their respective JKKK, through the Residents Committee (RC) (Miri City Council, Subis District Council, Marudi District Council) or register at the nearest Health Clinic (for rural areas only) during office hours, Monday to Friday,” said Lee.
Meanwhile, a total of 9,245 persons in the division had received their complete doses of Covid-19 vaccine under the first phase of the vaccine roll out.
