KUCHING: The Sarawak Association for People’s Aspiration (SAPA) will hold a peaceful protest pertaining to the state’s oil and gas rights at Miri Central Park at 8am on 22 September.

A vehicle-convoy will then proceed to Petronas at Lutong to deliver a memorandum to Petronas before the participants are dismissed.

SAPA president, Lina Soo said that in 2014 a similar protest was held where they submitted a memorandum to Shell and the Sarawak government.

“We wanted more jobs, scholarships, and business contracts to be given to the people and companies in Sarawak,” she said during a press conference here yesterday.

The theme for the event will be ‘Sarawak Oil, Sarawak Sovereignty’ and those attending are encouraged to dress in black.
