Colourful variety of flags sets Sarawak apart from other states

The current Sarawak state flag has been in use since 1988, when it was first introduced by SarawakÕs current Chief Minister Tan Sri Abdul Taib Mahmud during the stateÕs 25th Anniversary of Independence within Malaysia along with a new anthem, Ibu Pertiwiku.

THE colourful history that sets Sarawak apart from other states in Malaysia can be reflected in the many different flags it has adopted over the years.

Likewise its anthem, as a total of three have been recorded so far since the early days of the Brooke era.
