22 April 2024 (Isnin): Terima kasih kepada Institut Pengajian Borneo, Universiti Malaysia Sarawak kerana sudi memberikan dua buah buku yang bertajuk ‘Pattern and Trends of the Iban, Chinese and Malay Population of Sarawak, 1947-2010 dan ‘Pattern and Trends of the Bidayuh, Orang Ulu and Melanau Population of Sarawak, 1947-2010 yang di tulis oleh Dr. Lam Chee Kheung.Buku tersebut amat istimewa kerana ianya berkait nostalgia; YBhg. Datu Dr. Haji Sanib bin Haji Said, Pengurus Besar Amanah Khairat Yayasan Budaya Melayu Sarawak (AKYBMS) semasa beliau pernah menjadi Pengarah Institut Pengajian Borneo UNIMAS pada tahun 2013.
“I came to know Dr. Lam Chee Kheung when both of us were working in the Social Development Council Sarawak for several years in the early 1990s. He is one of the first few Sarawakians who obtained a Ph.D degree and the only one who specializes in demographic studies. When I became the director of the Institute specifically to work on his unappreciated photo-stated copies of his studies that had gathered dust for years”.- (Sanib Said,2013)
YBhg. Datu Dr. Haji Sanib bin Haji Said, telah di wakili oleh Cik Zafirah binti Othman, Ketua Unit Penyelidikan dan Media AKYBMS untuk bertukar-tukar bahan terbitan di Fakulti Sains Sosial Kemanusiaan pada hari ini bersama dengan Puan Hella Alban Ali.
Special thanks, Encik Abang Mohd Heikal bin Abg Othman.
