Biography

Datuk Joseph Entulu Belaun (born 8 June 1954) is a Malaysian politician. He is a Minister in the Department of the Prime Minister, Najib Razak, and a Member of the Parliament of Malaysia for the Selangau constituency in Sarawak, representing the Parti Rakyat Sarawak (PRS).
Entulu was elected to Parliament in the 2004 election. Before his election, he was Assistant Minister to the Chief Minister of Sarawak. He was first elected to Parliament as a member of the Sarawak Native People's Party (PBDS), but joined the PRS after the PBDS was deregistered in 2004. He is currently the Deputy President of the PRS.
Entulu was re-elected unopposed to Parliament in the 2008 election. In October 2008, he was conferred the title of Datuk.
Immediately after his election in 2004, Entulu was appointed to the federal ministry as Deputy Minister in the Prime Minister's Department. After the 2008 election he became Deputy Minister for Rural and Regional Development, and after the 2013 election was promoted to the full ministry as a Minister in the Prime Minister's Department.
He has spoken out against the use of the term Dayak as a generic descriptor of Sarawak's indigenous non-Muslim residents, preferring instead specific terms for each community.
