Urgent: Illegal Operation and Safety Violation - "Me Home Limbang" Limbang, Sarawak

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am writing to formally report serious safety and legal violations concerning a facility known as "Me Home Limbang," located in Limbang, Sarawak.

The operator of this facility commenced business operations without the required business license from the local authority. Their official Facebook page, Me Home Limbang, contains promotional videos and posts clearly showing their opening date and active operations. These materials serve as public evidence, with timestamps verifying that they were operating before applying for a business license.

Additionally, the facility has carried out major unauthorised structural works, including:

External expansion with metal structures beyond the original approved boundaries.
Construction of an internal mezzanine floor, increasing operational capacity and posing structural and fire safety risks.

These actions violate the Sarawak Building Ordinance 1994, Sarawak Local Authorities Ordinance 1996, and relevant fire safety regulations. The facility experiences high visitor traffic daily, raising significant concerns about public safety and emergency response readiness.

Due to the close relationships between the operator and local municipal officers, I am submitting this report directly to your esteemed department for impartial investigation. I respectfully request your urgent attention and enforcement action regarding this matter.

For your reference, you can find their Facebook page and public video evidence here:

For personal safety reasons, I prefer to remain anonymous.

Thank you for your attention to this serious concern.

Yours faithfully,
Concerned Citizen

Salam sejahtera. Untuk makluman, Majlis Daerah Limbang telah mengeluarkan surat kepada pemilik premis untuk mengemukakan permohonan bagi kerja-kerja pengubahsuaian kecil (minor renovation) yang telah dijalankan. Sebarang pelanggaran terhadap penggunaan tanah akan dirujuk kepada Pihak Berkuasa Perancang Yang Kompeten (Competent Planning Authority) untuk siasatan dan tindakan selanjutnya mengikut bidang kuasa mereka. Selain itu, Bahagian Penguatkuasaan Majlis tidak boleh mengambil sebarang tindakan tanpa keputusan atau laporan rasmi daripada Bahagian Kejuruteraan. Untuk makluman, tindakan penguatkuasaan oleh pihak berkuasa tempatan adalah lebih tertumpu kepada hal ehwal penjaja dan lesen premis kecil, manakala sebarang kes yang melibatkan struktur bangunan perlu mengikut prosedur dan penilaian teknikal oleh Bahagian Kejuruteraan terlebih dahulu. Sekian.
