The Lau King Howe Hospital Memorial Museum was established in memory of Low King Howe, one of the legendary figures in Sibu. He was committed towards serving the medical needs of the people of Sibu and initiated efforts with the government of Sarawak to set up a hospital in Sibu. In 1936 the hospital was declared opened and served the community well while Lau King Howe returned back to China to live out the remainder of his life. But in the early 80s when the Sibu General Hospital was built, this hospital that saved and served the community well during its early years disappeared into oblivion. Today it has been turned into a museum to showcase the love showed by a man for the town of Sibu which has made him into a local hero.
