HEALTHY CITY
The term 'Healthy Cities' came about in a title speech given at an international
meeting in Canada in 1985. It was then stressed that health is more than
just medical care - the epople's health is dependent upon the environment
that they live in and consequently the health of the community in which
they exist. The Healthy Cities movement now includes projects in over 1,000
cities around the world. Each project defines differrent goals and activities
but all bring a wide variety of people into the community improvement work.

the Healthy City Kuching was declared open by the State Secretary, YB Tan
Sri Datuk Amar Haji Hamid Bugo. 23 departments and agencies took part in
the four day exhibition.

membawa kepada peningkatan kemajuan dan seterusnya menambah baik tahap
kehidupan keseluruhannya.
Teras Budaya Sains dan Teknologi
Pertumbuhan ekonomi negara banyak disokong oleh peningkatan pelaburan
. Sejak Julai 1997, arah aliran pertumbuhan ini sedikit terjejas sehinggakan
kadar pertumbuhan ekonomi negara untuk suku pertama dan kedua tahun ini
telah menunjukkan unjuran negatif. Ini sedikit sebanyak membimbangkan
semua pihak sehinggakan kerajaan memutuskan untuk mengambil beberapa langkah
drastik bagi tujuan memulihkan situasi ini.

if he is to be efficient and effective, must be multi - skilled and must
be knowledgeable on a host of subjects ranging from administrative procedures
to legal issues covering land, family and other matters. How well prepared
are our District Officers when they asume their posts? How do they cope
with the myriad duties, tasks and responsibilities that they have to fulfill
in a given day? What are the constraints that they face as they discharge
their tasks?

ACTionetwork Building bridges
of UNDERSTANDING
On July 21, 1998, a group of enthusiastic civil servants and some from
the private sector and NGOs made pledge to join and participate actively
in Actionetwork. Now, what is Actionetwork? What do we conjure from the

deed?
