Borneo Rainforest, the Matang Kubah National Park and Matang Waterfall

View Larger Map Matang Kubah National Park, and the Matang Waterfall. Both situated just next to the Matang Family Park phase 2. The Kubah Nationa Park is also good for mount hiking, it is around 2500KM above sea level. The entrance is RM10 for each people. Along the way there are a lot of flora and fauna, all of these are what made Sarawak so unique. That morning, my friends and I did not go for the mount hiking, but we went to the waterfall. The name of the fall is called the 白云瀑布 (bai yun pu bu) which translate white clouds waterfall. Watch my video about my trip to the waterfall, you will be able to see  what we encounter along our way our durian hunting story the view of the matang waterfall sound of nature like birds, bugs and etc. More Reading:  Click here to view the summit of Gunung Serapi (Mount Matang... I hope google gave me the correct name) I pinnic at the Kubah national Park Waterfall  

Batu Kawa old town, Lundu, Sematan, and Jangkar waterfall

This is a trip to remember, that morning Me, Chan, Alex, and Tommy the 4 of us went to the western part of Kuching. The Lundu, the Sematan, and Jangkar Waterfall. We start our journey at the old Batu Kawa town, there we ate the famous Batu Kawa meat balls. Most of the Kuching people are familiar with the meat balls here. One thing that we found out is that the meat balls are getting lesser : p Our country inflation, the meat balls also inflation now... lols. Then, we have an hour drive to the Lundu town. The town is near to the sea, there is a river which connect to the sea. The water current flows fast, and it was high tide that day. We visited the newly build Retreat resort on Siar beach. I been here few years ago, it was still call Siar Beach. I called the Retreat office before to ask for the prices, but was annoyed by a very unfriendly lady. There is also a national park call the Gunung Gading where you can see the famous world's largest flower the Rafflesia Flower....

Visit to the Serikin Market near Indonesia Border

The second time I visit the place, went there with my mum at Saturday at around 2pm. The weather was HOT!!! The stuff that they sell are getting lesser, check out the blog post that I visit previously, last time they have more stuff compare to now. The place that they sell vegetable, this is at the very end of the stalls. Not sure what is this for, they said is for medicine. RM160 for one. And the dude are selling aphrodisiac medicine, so I guess this must be something related to it. Mum bought the fried banana, and the indo local titbits. Cheers, Wilson Forgot to bring an umbrella that day :( damn hot!!!

Where is the Pancor Hotspring @ Kuching, Serian Road?

  Sorry for my sleepy face :) but I've work up around 5am that morning, waited for my friend to pick me up at 5.30am. At first they told me that we're going to the hotspring. So I tough, I've been to the hotspring before, and it doesn't take that long to reach, why we have to go so early? Then, saw my friend drive pass the junction to the Annah Raise Hotspring , and keep on driving all the way to the Kuching-Serian road. And we drive pass the Siburan Village (17 Mile), then Pass the Beratok Village (21st Mile), and pass the Tapah Village (22nd Mile). Then he took a left turn into the Dragon School (aka College Tun Abdul Razak) at Tapah Village (22nd Mile Kuching Serian Road).   And then, we drive again for another 10 - 15 min, and I saw signboard saying "Pancor Hotspring", then we turn right, again, and follow the signboard again. And finally we reach our destination.   This is my first visit to the Pancor Horspring,...

Visiting Kampung Singai Atas @ Bau

How to look after a lots of Kids?  read My previous visit to the family, to know more about this family.   For you who are having birthday, Happy Birthday :) yeah, when we get a simple Happy Birthday wish on our birth day, we will feel warm, and happy, cause we know that we still have someone who remember us, someone who like us, someone who care for us, someone who we called friend/family.   When we asked this mother what is her children birthday, she needs to refer to the birth certificate for the actual day. Can't blame her for not remembering the children actual birthdate, cause too much of them, and she have to look after their living, study, work, health, wash clothes, etc. After we know the birthday of the kids, we then went and celebrate birthday with the kids there.  So my friend, please remember the birthday of your love one, family, kids, or best friend. And if your busy, a simple Happy Birthday text will be more than ...

The Bungai Beach (Pantai Bungai) @ Bekenu, Miri

I'm at the Bungai Beach, is a family day :) this beach is a 40 minutes drive from the Miri town.   Just like Buntal Village at Kuching , this place is a fisherman village too. But the good thing about this beach is that it is very clean. The water is crystal clear, and the ocean is green blue in colour. I seldom see such clean ocean in Sarawak. Normally is a but muddy.   The the beach cost line is like a few kilometer long.    I like this beach because it has a lot of big tress on the cost line, and I went there around 10am that day, we all just picnic under the trees shade. Without worrying the hot sun :)   And here it also has lots of jelly fish, some is huge!!! it give me the goose bum when seeing the jelly fish's back. Few years back (the first time encounter jelly fish), my brother and I went to a beach, and caught a few jelly fish, but we got stunk by it, and after that never in our life we dare to get close to ...

My visit to the Sepupok Town (old Niah Town) @ Miri

  So after the Niah Town , we went to the old Niah Town, is called Sepupok. You can get the location at google map here .   The famous food at this place is the Lobster Noodles, 9 bucks per bow. The reason we go there is because of the noodles, but unfortunately the owner went to Miri town that day, so they're not cooking.    The same at the Bekenu town and Niah town , it has a river next to the town center too.  And a "Beware of Crocodile" signboard has been put up as well.   The young, brave, and good looking crocodile hunter, Wilson Chin!!!! lols... :D I felt so pity for the people here, as some of them doesn't have water supply to their home, so although is very danger (crocodile) to bath in the river, but they have no choice. 

My Visit to Batu Niah Town @ Miri

After my visit to Bekenu , then my parent and I drive another 15 mins to another town called Niah. My last visit to the Niah town is here . Where I explorer the famous Niah Cave. Upon enter the Niah town, we are welcome by this magnificent view in front of us. The cliff wall of the Niah town. My 2nd visit to this place, and this time I roam around the town area and see what they have there. A Chinese school, is the SJKC Chee Mung. This might be a primary school, I also study in a Chinese primary school. And I learn how to write and read in Chinese there. But after goes to secondary school, no teacher available to teach Chinese, so we have no more changes to learn Chinese again. Most of the small town in Sarawak, there will be a river. Is the same as Niah here, and they also put in a sign "A danger sign" of the alligator!!!! Look at the static and muddy water here, you dare to swim in this place? Cheers, Wilson  Chee Mung  = 启蒙  ...

My Visit to the small town called Bekenu @ Miri

I visited a small town called the Bekenu Town, so this place is a 30 min drive from Miri. This town is under the Subis District Council. And as you can see the picture here, one of the income source is from oil palm plantation. Upon entering the town, you can see a few row of newly develop shop lots. And most of them are operate by the Chinese people. Yes, the Barisan National are quite active here, cause I can see a lot of flags of the BN, and the PBB (Persaka Bumiputera Bersatu) in English is the United Traditional Bumiputera Party. So opposition team, common where are you guys!!! do more roadshow in places like this, they need to know the truth about our country!!!   On the second half of the town, is where the old shop lots are. Most of them still remain their old appearance.    Most of them are also operate by the Chinese people here, and small town like this, they have 4 motor bike shops. The business is good, cause most of them are using...
