Taha will be best remembered as the man who helped reshape Sarawak football.
In the 1970s, when it was in decline and the management went bankrupt, Taha stepped in.
He founded the Football Association of Sarawak (FAS) in 1974, replacing the Sarawak Amateur Football Association, with assistance from the state government. He rewrote the constitution and overhauled the management.
After laying the groundwork, it was in the late 1980s and mid-1990s that Taha reaped the rewards of his hard work.
In the 1990s, then coached by Australian Alan Vest, Sarawak turned from being the whipping boy of Malaysian football into title contenders.
Other honours soon followed. In 1997, Sarawak was crowned Premier League champion and won the Charity Shield in the 1998 season curtain raiser.
In 1999, Sarawak reached the finals of the prestigious Malaysia Cup, its first ever, with Taha at the helm.
A lawyer by training, he obtained his Bachelor of Law from the University of Leeds in Britain.
He will be buried at the Semariang Muslim cemetery today

Michael Constantine. Now that Milford Regional Medical Center's new $25 million cancer center is about ready to open, it's like a godsend for patients and families, she said.
It's amazing that it's going to be so close and so accessible, she said. I just am so excited - not that I want to use it, mind you - but I'm excited for all the other people.
Behind the curtain of glass walls that make up the facade of the new 54,000-square-foot cancer center, hospital workers from Milford Regional Medical Center, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and Brigham - Women's Hospital are getting geared up.
Local quality care is just about here.
To get this level of care in the community, it's just wonderful, said Lori Buswell, nursing director for Dana-Farber's satellite clinics.
I know so many people who live far away from the big Boston hospitals that opt to come (to Boston), she said. But the stress it produces in their lives during such a critical time in their lives, it's really outstanding when you listen to people's stories
