The new DUN icon political which was located at near Sarawak River was launched by his majesty on yesterday 28 july 2009 are became the latest icon of sarawak.Such beautifull building which should be pround by the sarawakian people as our state is democractic state.

The recently launched of the new DUN building becam the latest landmark for the kuching people as well as the sarawak.As democractic state,we sholud be pround for its manifested of the building as a icon democracy which continue became main prinsip in our natin

The story of DUN building was first start when James Brooke led the first state council in Bintulu,sarawak in 19th century which was attended by the tribe chief from various ethnic as well as the the british colonial officer.It was became a first malaysian legislative assembly in malaysia.By the 2oth century the DUN assembly was moved to its new place at the Brooke Old Courtyard House which located near the India street currently.The historic building is still existed and has been listed as tourist attraction.By the 1960s,the sarawak at that time was still in brotish crown colony,the DUN Assembly was again moved to the new palce at the muzium Tun abdul razak.After joining the Mlayasian 16 september 1963,the State Govermnent needed the new legislative Building as well the permanet building.The new DUN Building was build at the petrajaya and was launched by the Tunku Abdul Rahman,then the prime minister at that time.The New DUN Building was lauched as sign of the entering of Sarawak state to Malaysia.The New DUN building was also house of the sarawak government such as Wisma Bapa Malaysia.

In year 2007,Sarawak Government lauched a new plan to build another DUN building to accomated the growing number of the assemblyman seat in sarawak.Today,the DUN Seat Sarawak state is largest in Malaysian with 71 seats.Such the growing number of the DUN seat are needed to accomadate the number of the DUN seat s well as to became the official the house of Sarawak Goverment.The project was lauched and the New DUN Building was build near the sarawak river as well as near to the Astana Negeri.The New DUN Building was unique as it was the style of Commonwealth parliament was usually located near the river.

As Sarawakian, i am very pround of the new DUN building was very important t our state.Despite been faraway from my homeland, i always believe this new landmark will beacme great icon for sarawak as well as the Malaysia.Let hope that the democracy of Sarawak will continue to posperous and it is hope the Sarawak goverment continue develop and build our nation in the future so that our people will continue to move forward in the future.Kudos to them.

HILARY HIEW.
