Sarawak Government agencies strengthen cybersecurity readiness through CyberSarawak's 3S Programme (Stay Safe, Stay Smart, Stay Secure) ensuring resilient digital infrastructure, empowered civil servants, and coordinated incident response to safeguard public services and enable inclusive, trusted participation in Sarawak's digital economy transformation.

Upgrading Sungai Asap to Apau Koyan district enhances service delivery by decentralising administrative functions, reducing response times for healthcare, education, and welfare services, and enabling locally-tailored development planning that better addresses the unique needs of interior Sarawak communities.

Since 1963, the Sarawak Civil Service has driven transformative development through infrastructure expansion, economic stabilization, and digital modernization. By bridging the gap between visionary policy and impactful execution, the service has navigated decades of challenges to foster a resilient and prosperous society. Today, it stands as a model of administrative excellence, having successfully transitioned Sarawak from a developing region into a modern, high-income powerhouse within Malaysia.

Through Revisit and Rethink, the Sarawak Civil Service audits outdated regulations and reimagines workflows to eliminate red tape, streamline approvals, and accelerate digitalization. This strategic approach drives efficiency, enhances citizen-centric service delivery, and aligns with the state’s vision for developed status by 2030.

From colonial foundations under the Brooke era and Japanese occupation to post-war British expansion and asymmetrical autonomy enshrined in MA63, Sarawak’s education system has experienced a profound transformation marked by surging literacy rates from under 10% in 1900 to 91.4% by 2024, yet this progress is persistently undermined by stark rural-urban divides, dilapidated infrastructure affecting 20% of schools, quality deficits reflected in PISA scores trailing regional peers like Vietnam and Singapore, and federal funding biases that challenge both educational equity and the ambitious STEM-driven goals of PCDS 2030.

Malaysia and Sarawak are building a stronger safety net through mandatory gig worker contributions, expanded unemployment protection, digital cash transfers, and portable social insurance. These reforms aim to close coverage gaps, support informal workers, and ensure dignity for all in a transforming economy.
