KENINGAU: The Kampung Merampong Village Tamu House, built to provide an official business platform to increase the income of small traders and boost local economic activities in the Bingkor area, was officially opened by Assistant Finance Minister Datuk Mohd Ishak Ayub.
The building functions as a people’s economic centre offering a more organised and conducive business space for village micro-entrepreneurs, particularly traders of agricultural products, food and daily necessities.

Bingkor assemblyman Datuk Mohd Ishak said the provision of basic facilities oriented towards the grassroots economy is a practical step to ensure planned development has a direct impact on the lives of the people and is not merely symbolic.
He stressed that impactful developments such as Tamu Desa not only help increase household income but also promote local economic circulation and reduce rural residents’ dependence on urban centres.
With the completion and operation of the Kampung Merampong Village Tamu House, the area is expected to emerge as a new focus for community economic and social activities in line with efforts to strengthen balanced and inclusive development in the Bingkor constituency.
