Mahmud Abu Bekir Shares Memories Of Late Father Taib


 


Sarawak’s former governor and longest-serving chief minister the late Abdul Taib Mahmud was very committed to his work but always carved out time for his family, according to his son Mahmud Abu Bekir Taib.
He recalled that his father always came back late from work and the task of looking after him and his siblings was mainly shouldered by their mother, the late Laila Taib.
However, Mahmud said no matter how tired Taib was, he would try to spend time with his children.
“This is something we all remember. Whenever he came back, his face looked tired.
“Yet, he got time to take us to see a movie or something like that,” he told reporters after Taib was laid to rest with full state honours at the family cemetery at Demak Jaya in Kuching, Sarawak, today.
Mahmud (above) said he remembered when his father fell asleep while watching a Wuxia sword-fighting movie with his family in a cinema.
“He was tired but because of his love for us, he was willing to spend time with us even though he fell asleep,” he said with a laugh.
He said his father was also a disciplinarian but feared taking care of toddlers as he was not good at changing diapers or feeding babies.
Asked about important advice from his father, Mahmud said Taib always told him and his siblings to work hard and that there was no excuse for them not to do so.
“But there was also a soft side to him. He said okay, you may fail, but you know that it is more important that you know how to get up again when you fall.

Mahmud said his father travelled a lot because he also held ministerial posts at the federal level.
“Growing up with him is a great experience,” he said.
Funeral and burial
Taib was buried next to the grave of his first wife Laila, who died of cancer on April 29, 2009.
Earlier, Taib’s body was taken to the state legislative assembly building for a lying-in-state to allow members of the public, dignitaries, and cabinet members to pay their last respects.
Funeral prayers were held at the Demak Mosque near his residence.
Taib, also known as the Father of Modern Sarawak, breathed his last at a private hospital in Kuala Lumpur at 4.40am yesterday.
The state government has declared a two-day mourning period, with flags to be flown at half-mast throughout Sarawak and all entertainment events postponed.
