Childhood dream became a reality: Visiting the Sarawak State Assembly Council Building

From 22nd to 24th of November,I've went to Kuching (for the 2nd time for this year) as part of the Youth Integration Visit entourage.The location of the 3 days and 2 night tour was the Sarawak State Legislative Hall (Which I've haven't visited).It's a golden opportunity for me,and also a childhood dream becoming a reality.

After arriving at Kuching,we later checked in at Dormani Hotel,and at night,we went to Top Spot Seafood for dinner with ADUN for N49 Nangka,YB Dr.Annuar Rapaee.

On the next day,we departed to the DUN Complex at 0800hrs.Despite being hampered by traffic jam along the Petra Jaya-Matang roundabout,the trip was smooth.

Below are the photos:
