Sandakan :  The  former St. Mary’s Convent Primary School building which used to house the Church workers was totally demolished last month to give way to the construction of the Sandakan Diocesan Pastoral and Worship Center. Currently, the workers are putting up temporary in other places available.

The Cathedral Parish together with the Diocesan Office had embarked on the construction of a labour line sited next to the basketball court. The two-storey semi permanent building with six quarters, each with two bedrooms, is self contained.

The project costing around RM140,000 was awarded to Wong Fook Choi Contractor and the contract agreement was sealed on 15th July 2010. It is expected to complete by early next month. As of date, the project is about 80% complete.

The project is under the supervision of the Cathedral Parish Property Maintenance and Management Committee (PPMMC) headed by Peter Thien.
