She advised the people not to hesitate to approach her to offer their views and assistance that would help advance the district's development.

Madam Farizana urged Assembly Members, unit committees and traditional authorities to team up to mobilize the people to initiate self-help development programmes so they could attract support from the government and non-governmental organizations. "Politics is meant to bring development", she said and called on the people not to be divided by partisan politics but rather unite in tackling the diverse problems facing the district.
