SANDAKAN: The Sandakan Memorial Park serves as a humble reminder of the high price of freedom and is fitting tribute to the many Australian and British soldiers who lost their lives in the line of duty.
Chief Minister Datuk Musa Aman said the beauty and serenity of the war memorial park made it difficult for people today to imagine the horrors and tragedies that occurred here more than 60 years ago.
Musa, whose speech was read out by Deputy Chief Minister Datuk Peter Pang, said this at the Anzac Day dawn service held at the park here.
“We gather at this park to commemorate the courage of those men, to honour their strength and endurance and to preserve the memory of their sacrifice. We also remember the compassion of our own people, who risked and sacrificed their lives to help them,” said the Chief Minister.
