I didnt know much about Sarawak till i started working in Sarawak and immersed in the culture, most ppl from Semenanjung are damn ignorant and talk about diversity but to be honest i think Sarawakians are kind people and most accepting towards diversity.
That is so true that sarawakian know and can speak a lot of different languages and dialects. Me myself can speak at least 10 different dialects and languages. As a sarawakian who migrated to australia for over a decades I still remember my toungue language and great part is I am able to speak to a lot of my Asian patients here in Australia in their language (I'm a nurse and at the hospital i have pretty diverse patients) Even tho I'm here for many years, sarawak is always close to my heart. I cannot wait to be home again someday ❤ Happy sarawak day to all fellow sarawakian, stay safe xx
In my opinion, If Sarawak was a INDEPENDENT country, it would be like New Zealand, ( for example, Like the NZ has two culture Anglo-maori, so Sarawak will had a anglo-sarawakian culture too) And most people in Sarawak should adopted English as official language, and Iban will be the language of rural areas, the official religion of Sarawak will be Christian, the Sarawak would be called "Federal democratic Republic of the Sarawak" If our state became a Independent nation, we'll have a great maintain relationship with other southeast Asian countries, Why? Because Sarawak is a Brunei/British ex colony, They gave us independent, after that British want to merge our state into Malaya, Our currency gonna be Dollars or pound thats gonna be the best thing for among Sarawakian,Tbh, I'm so sorry for Offended every Malaysian who live in Peninsular, but that's my opinion, stay safe everyone :) 🙏
Happy Independence Day to all of the Sarawakians viewers ❤️ though i have never been there be4, its always in my bucket list to visit them one day (maybe after this pandemic is over,,, hopefully🤞)

Karna Sarawak merdeka pada 22 juli 1963, Sabah 31 Agustus 1963, Malaya 31 Agustus 1957. Jadi ketiga-tiga wilayah tersebut setuju bersatu pada 16/9/1963 membentuk negara Malaysia. 16/9 ialah Hari Malaysia dan hari libur disini. Pemerintah Malaysia setuju menjadikan 22 juli sebagai Hari Sarawak karna mereka merdeka dri Inggris saat itu. Ini adalah sejarah mereka. Sama di Indo, setau aku Papua merdeka dri Belanda pada Oktober 1962 dan Riau masuk RI pada 17 Agustus 1957. Tapi mereka tetap sambut Merdeka pada 17 Agustus. Nah gitulah sejarahnya.
@@Sky-bi4zc Oalahhh. Paham". Cuman, kalau di Indonesia. Setau aku juga. Gak ada peringatan hari kemerdekaan selain tanggal 17 Agustus. Nah, kalau hari jadi (Anniversary) suatu daerah. Baru ada.

Correction: Sarawak is divided into 11 administrative divisions, not districts. However, a division is divided into districts.
