PADAWAN: Primary schools in the Mambong constituency are encouraged to send outstanding students to the Sarawak Foundation International School.

State Deputy Transport Minister Datuk Dr. Jerip Susil hoped that every primary school in the constituency would take advantage of the opportunity offered.
