D33 : Economic Development

Sarawak’s economy is based largely upon her vast natural resources. The major sectors of economy are Mining, Timber, Agriculture, Tourism, Construction, Manufacturing and Services. Although Sarawak is blessed with abundance of natural resources, the high proportion of poor people and low number of middle-income Sarawakians leave much to be desired in terms of a healthy economy.

Prayer Suggestions: • Pray for a better business climate in Sarawak through Government support by education, incentives initiatives and infrastructures. • Pray for more jobs to draw professionally trained Sarawakians home to promote state development. • Pray for positive mindset and work culture change that will enable Sarawak to meet current global challenges. • Pray for skills, funding and knowledge for rural business development. • Pray for more ‘Kingdom’ enterprises that will help alleviate the local economy. • Pray for Christian Professionals, Business Owners and Employees to work towards economic transformation of Sarawak.
