Recently, two well-known academicians namely Professor Dr. Zawawi Ibrahim, Deputy Dean of the Faculty of Social Science of Universiti Malaysia Sarawak (Unimas) and Chief Executive Officer of Swinburne Sarawak Institute of Technology Mohammad Abdul Rahman suggested that a high profile forum should be first organised to study the thoughts and philosophy of Taib prior to the setting up of an institute for the purpose.

Deputy Dean of the Faculty of Social Science in Universiti Malaysia Sarawak (Unimas), Professor Dr. Zawawi Ibrahim, however, recommended that a forum or seminar would be necessary to facilitate and discuss in-depth study and research on the thoughts and philosophy of the Chief Minister prior to the setting up of an institute.

"I would recommend that a wide range of experts from various disciplines like economics, political, social and anthropology from both international and local institutions of higher learning be invited to present their papers," he said.

He added that the wide range of subjects to be discussed on the ideas and philosophy of the Chief Minister could then be compiled into books.
