Delightful experience at "Pristine Seas: Bringing The Ocean Back" exhibition held at Borneo Cultures Museum

I have praised our Sarawak Museum Department for having organised the “Pristine Seas: Bringing The Ocean Back” exhibition at  Borneo Cultures Museum in Kuching City. Our appreciation to the department headed by it’s Director, Puan Nancy Haji Jolhi for having invited me to grace the opening ceremony which was also attended by our young folks from University Malaysia Sarawak (UNIMAS), UiTM Kota Samarahan campus and SIDMA College Kuching. 

The exhibition exciting because its showcases the splendour of our rich marine life and oceans while raising the people’s awareness on what the Pristine Seas project by National Geographic really stands for.  According to our museum department, it had attracted a total of 12,578 visitors since opening on October 28. 

The exhibition is serving to showcase the beauty of marine life and the ocean while raising awareness about the “Pristine Seas” project’s critical conservation efforts. Such initiatives are also aligned with Sarawak’s goals under the Post-Covid Development Strategy (PCDS) 2030, emphasising sustainable development, collaboration with local communities, and the preservation of natural ecosystems to achieve its vision of becoming a developed region by 2030.  

Our local folks to seize the opportunity to visit the exhibition and experience the wonders of the Pristine Seas firsthand. It provides us the good opportunity to learn more about ocean conservation and draw inspiration from the continuous efforts to restore and protect our oceans worldwide. The exhibition also serves as a timely and wonderful reminder to respect our oceans, safeguard the marine life, and explore how we can all contribute to the success on global scale.
