Sarawak Chief Minister Adenan Satem passed away this afternoon from heart complications, just two weeks shy of his 73rd birthday.
Adenan, who led the Barisan Nasional (BN) to a resounding victory during the last Sarawak election, died at the Sarawak General Hospital Heart Centre in Samarahan.
He leaves wife Jamilah Anu and five children.
Adenan replaced long-serving chief minister Abdul Taib Mahmud on March 1, 2014.
In 2010, he became Taib's special adviser, later succeeding him as the 5th chief minister.
