XX [From the foreword by Celestine Ujang Jilan] "As minister for Culture, Youth and Sports, it gives me great pleasure to write the foreword for this long overdue book on the cultural heritage of Sarawak. I would like, first of all, to congratulate Encik Lucas Chin, curator, Sarawak Museum, for his efforts in producing this book which has been written in the midst of a busy life. Ensik Chen has been with the museum for 24 years. Careful research and an intimate knowledge of Sarawak have enabled him to write on such interesting subjects, although some of them have only been superficially studied. I hope this book will stimulate scholars to carry out more comprehensive studies on some, if not all, of the subjects. A wide range of subjects has been covered in this volume, from prehistoric artifacts recovered especially in the famous Niah Great Cave to the historical buildings constructed in the last quarter of the 19th century. It should, therefore, serve as a very useful introduction to students and laymen who are interested in the cultural heritage of Sarawak. My ministry and the Sarawak Museum, as part of their functions, carry out a series of projects such as the collection of oral traditions, legends and folklores, traditional games and plays and festivals.".
