BAU, Aug 28: St Stephen Catholic Church in Bau has received a RM1 million upgrade under the Greater Kuching Coordinated Development Agency (GKCDA) allocation. Deputy Transport Minister Datuk Henry Harry Jinep inspected the work and highlighted the importance of improving comfort for the church’s increasing congregation. The project included installing 14 air-conditioning units, upgrading the power supply, replacing the main switchboards, and repairing roof leakages.
Henry explained that the church typically sees around 800 people during Sunday Mass, with attendance increasing during festive seasons. The hot weather and haze conditions in the area further emphasized the need for ventilation and comfort improvements. The newly installed air-conditioning system has been tested and is functioning well.
Meanwhile, a separate RM2 million upgrade for the Bau Civic Centre, which includes installing an escalator and service lift for better accessibility, is expected to be completed by year-end.
