Summary: | Samarahan district was formerly known as Muara Tuang. The origins of the name Muara Tuang is based on the location of the village between two rivers namely Sungai Samarahan and Sungai Tuang. It was began as a sub-district under the district administration of Kuching, Samarahan district then known as Daerah Kecil Muara Tuang, which was administered by a Native Officer (Sarawak Administrative Officer). Muara Tuang District office is the administrative centre of the earliest in Samarahan and was built in 1933. As a small town, the absence of good road infrastructure and using the river as a main route put Daerah Kecil Muara Tuang in poor condition. The merger of this sub-district with Nonok sub-district has opened a new chapter for the government to develop the area under their jurisdiction. |
