The grand old 1929 heritage mansion named "Rumah Takdir" by Malaysia’s first prime minister Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra Al-Haj stands proud as a symbol of unity in diversity.
It was in this well-preserved double-storey bungalow in the town of Pulau Tikus here that Tunku Abdul Rahman, a Kedah prince, had lived after his retirement in 1970 until his passing in 1990.
