Anthony & Gita Brooke, Founders

Founders

During their lifetimes Anthony and Gita led our work from the front, directing the activities of OPTU and interpreting the best means of advancing the cause they had built upon the Brooke Sarawak foundation. Anthony passed away in 2011 and Gita in 2020, and since then it was intended that the work be guided by the Advisory Panel in alignment with the Brooke Family's wishes.
