Vehement opposition met the White Rajah's decision to cede Sarawak to the British Crown in 1946.
The story... that been displayed for viewing...
In December 1949, anti-cession fervour led to the fatal stabbing of a newly appointed colonial Governor. The assassin and three accomplices were convicted of murder and executed in March 1950. Their remains were moved from prison cemetery in Kuching to this permanent resting place on March 2 1996.
Later generations honour the spirit of these young men who sacrificed their lives for the ideals of independence and nationhood.
The truth... is more than this...
Selamat menyambut ari kemerdekaan...
