SWIFTLET FARMING IN SARAWAK

The recent meeting chaired by the Ministry of Environment and Public Health Sarawak noted that in gereral, the swiftlet ranching contributes to the economy of the State. The meeting agreed that the relevant departments to deeply look into the issues related to swiftlet ranching in Sarawak and assist the ranchers wherever possible, in accordance to the State law.
The meeting noted taht the Sarawak law is different from Semenanjung and therefore, they said the ranchers in the State should abide by it.
In Sarawak, Jawatankuasa Burung Walit is currently under Setiausaha Tetap, Kementerian Perancangan dan Pengurusan Sumber with the CM himself is the Minister in charge. The licensing have to go through State Planning Unit (SPU). That's where the problem stated.
