Heroes Memorial Monument located in front of Limbang Police Station is
listed as a new tourist destination under the Ministry of Tourism to
promote the acts of the warriors, who died in 1962.The monument had to be promoted because it has its own history as a
tribute to the warriors who were killed fighting against British
colonialism.“The Heroes Memorial Monument has been listed as a tourist attraction in
Limbang in Sarawak. Therefore, various efforts will be made to upgrade and
beautify the monument to attract both domestic and international
visitors.
A memorial stands alone opposite the Limbang Police Station. It
commemorates the death of five Royal Marines and four Royal Malaysian
Police Constables who was killed in action during the Limbang
Rebellion/Limbang Raid. Built close to the spot where where the first Z
craft landed, the unveiling of the monument in 1963 was attended by
many of the Royal Marines who took part in the actual riot.
