SIBU, Sept 3 ― The Sarawak government has taken steps to preserve old buildings across Sarawak by gazetting them as heritage buildings, said Datuk Seri Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah.
“There are also old buildings ― in Kuching we have the post office and old court house gazetted as heritage buildings while in Sibu, Lau King Howe Hospital Memorial Museum and Al-Qadim Mosque have been gazetted. I am not sure about others,” said the Minister of Tourism, Creative Industry and Performing Arts after launching Sibu Heritage Photography Contest 2022 here yesterday.
“I think the oldest Melanau longhouse in Mukah has also been gazetted or planned to be gazetted,” he added. The closing is October 9 for submission of photos taken in Sibu between 2018 and 2022. Photos taken with smartphones are also accepted.
