Taib's son shares fond memories of his late father


KUCHING: Sarawak's former governor and the longest-serving Chief Minister the late Tun Abdul Taib Mahmud was very committed to his work but always carved out time for his family, according to his son Datuk Seri Mahmud Abu Bekir Taib.

He recalled that his father always came back late from work and the task of looking after him and his siblings was mainly shouldered by their mother, the late Datuk Patinggi Laila Taib.
