The building symbolise Malaysia as a democratic nation. This building structure is very unique! The entire building is covered by heat and light-absorbing glass. The amount of sunlight entering the building is controlled by enveloping the building with carved ornamental patterns or 'kerawang' made from local concrete which had been installed piece by piece. The beehive-shaped 'kerawang' is what gives the building its unique look! -Bernama
