In July 2026, Tebedu breaks ground on its RM5 million Dataran Mutiara square, funded by GKCDA, due October 2027. This new major hub revitalizes Sarawak's key border town, spurred by Nusantara, boosting local agriculture, cross-border trade, and Bidayuh cultural pride.

Sarawak's RM11 billion bridge network is a strategic investment dismantling logistical barriers, catalysing agricultural modernization, and enforcing food security policies.

Statistik Jabatan Perikanan menunjukkan penurunan pendaratan ikan laut daripada 157,249 tan metrik (2014) kepada 96,103 tan metrik (2024), turut membimbangkan kita tentang keberkesanan polisi yang sedia ada. Projek Reef Ball yang melibatkan lebih 21,800 unit tukun sepanjang 746 km pesisir pantai telah diiktiraf antarabangsa dan meningkatkan stok ikan sebanyak 20–30% dalam tempoh 3–5 tahun selepas pemasangan. Walau bagaimanapun, isu penguatkuasaan, kesedaran komuniti pesisir, dan kekurangan infrastruktur masih menjadi cabaran utama.

Sarawak advances SDG and ESG via PCDS 2030, leveraging hydropower, hydrogen, and carbon capture to attract green investment.

This tension is further complicated by the legacy of its timber and oil palm sectors, which have drawn sharp local and international criticism but are now undergoing significant reform efforts aimed at aligning with global ESG standards.
