via Borneo Post, 04 March 2022: Remarks made at the opening of the new Borneo Cultures Museum.
The Sarawak Museum Department can play a larger role in promoting cultural and creative industries (CCI), in addition to protecting and preserving the heritage of Sarawak.
In highlighting this, Premier of Sarawak Datuk Patinggi Tan Sri Abang Johari Tun Openg said this would thereby encourage the growth of the CCI under the purview of the state’s Ministry of Tourism, Creative Industry and Performing Arts.
“This, in turn, would contribute to the growth of Sarawak’s gross domestic product (GDP) by encouraging jobs and having other direct and indirect economic effects in the services sector,” he spoke at the opening of the Borneo Cultures Museum (BCM) here tonight.
