Daughter works on memoir of Jusit Rantai, who raised Malaysian flag in 1963

Juliana Jusit is preparing a memoir of her late father, Jusit Rantai, who raised the Malaysian flag at the declaration of Malaysia at Padang Bandaran, Jesselton on 16 September 1963. The memoir draws on Jusit's own handwritten notes, including his childhood with Agnes Newton Keith's family in Sandakan and his Iban heritage. Juliana drove from Sook, Keningau to Sarawak to trace his story, and a public university has been approached to publish it.
