Description
Summary:The Department of Public Works Sarawak has a lot to do with the history of infrastructure development in Sarawak. The establishments of this department since 1882 are the three main legacy of the Sarawak Government namely, “The Age of Brooke (White Figure from 1882-1941)”, “The Age of the British Colonies (after the Second World War, 1946- 1963)” and “(The Age of Independence Government of Malaysia, 1963 until now)”. The Public Works Department was established and headed by the “Public Inspectorate” in 1882 and subsequently headed by “Superintendent Works and Survey” in 1897. The name of this post was finally changed to the Public Works Director, Sarawak. Sarawak Public Works Department has undergone a reorganization process from their “Builders” to “Managers” to ensure the aspirations of the Sarawak state government. The role of this department has evolved towards the Implementation of the Development Project through Restructuring of Human Resources, the Restructuring of organizational Structure and the enhancement of technical competence.
