KUCHING, Oct 10 2026: Premier Abang Johari Openg has praised Governor Tun Wan Junaidi Tuanku Jaafar for his immense contributions not only to the state, but also to the country throughout his public service.
He said Wan Junaidi, from a son of Sarawak serving in the security forces, to pursuing studies to become a lawyer, entering the political arena, shouldering the responsibility of a federal cabinet member, serving as the President of the Senate, and has finally become the state’s the Head of State.
He said Wan Junaidi's contributions in upholding Sarawak’s peace while serving in the Jungle Squad within the Rajang Security Command (RASCOM) area form a part of a history of sacrifice that must never be forgotten.
"I am certain that your service and willingness to risk your life in combating communist elements will remain an enduring part of the history of your sacrifices for a Sarawak free from the communist threat," the premier said in his speech at the 80th birthday celebration at Central Padang this morning.
"Throughout your career journey as a member of the security forces, a politician, and a federal cabinet member, you have witnessed and participated in various pivotal events in the history of both the nation and Sarawak," the premier said.
He said the governor's experience in the fields of security, law, the constitution, and national administration has undoubtedly provided a broad perspective in understanding the intricacies of state and national governance.
The premier also said that he, together with all the people of Sarawak, pray that Wan Junaidi is always blessed with good health, peace of mind, and well-being.
"As the Head of the GPS Government, I fervently hope that the unity fostered under Your Excellency's patronage will continue to serve as a catalyst for transforming Sarawak into the nation’s most advanced state by 2030, God willing," abang Johari said.
