When I visited the Bintulu town, my friend is kind enough to bring me to this jungle trekking park, and this is at the city area. Its a good place for an evening exercise after work







There are a lot of small tracks in this park forest, however we must be careful, walk with a team or at least a friends, so when unpredictable incident happen, we still have someone there to help.

Coconut Drink and Farm visiting at Bintulu Town

I landed in Bintulu that morning, and my friend picked me up at the airport, so happy that he remember my arrival time, and on our way to his farm. We pass by to the place where the local village people sells the fruits and vegetable. We stop by and have this delicious coconut!!!

The juice extremely delicious, mix with some pandan flavor. The lady is kind enough to split the coconut into half, and let me eat the coconut. The also use the hard skin, and make it as a spoon to let me dig the coconut to eat.

I then proceed to my friend's farm, and he told me that he just finish harvesting the previous bath. Now waiting for the new batch of veggie to grow. He used two years to make this place what is it now, and there are still a lot of work to be done.

This little devil lives on the farm, hehehe so tame and likes to be pat.
To make the soil good enough to starts planting. The planting, watering, and harvesting are all still manual labour work.

The highlight of the whole journey starts here, the water caving.

Inside the cave, limestone wall surrounding us, and its pitch black inside the cave.

The water its clear, just when we are there, we causes the mud to mix with the water, and made the water muddy. There are a lot of fishes in the water.

Kuching Charity Run for the Cerebra Palsy Children

Cerebral palsy is a group of disorders that can involve brain and nervous system functions,

• such as movement,
• learning,
• hearing,
• seeing,
• and thinking.

There are several different types of cerebral palsy, including spastic, dyskinetic, ataxic, hypotonic, and mixed.

I've join in the team to run the event, and to raise fund for the CP children, that centre needs money to get a hydrotherapy swimming pool for the children. The run is mainly to raise fund and also to create publicity for this young society called the Wishesland (facebook link here) to let more people know about the place, what they do, and what they need. So my dear friend, if you are reading this post now, and would like to help this CP children, you can either email me, and go to their facebook page to checkout more details.

The Borneo Sarawak, Sibu Town trip with Wilson Chin

Sibu is an inland town, and the capital of Sibu District in Sibu Division, Sarawak, east Malaysia. It is located at the confluence of the Rajang and Igan Rivers, some 60 kilometres from the ocean and approximately 183.3 kilometres east-north-east of the state capital Kuching. The population is dominated by Chinese especially the Fuzhou as well as indigenous Melanau, Malay, and Iban.
The first thing each time that I reach Sibu, its the kampua noodles. Sibu is very famous of this noodles, its like a Sibu delicacy. The food at Sibu are cheap, so Sibu is a food heaven, you can eat all you want with a lot of variety, and cheap price.

The Sibu town area have a lot of Chinese, and most of them operate business here. Its safe to walk alone as Sibu has a low crime rate compare to other big cities on West Malaysia. The people in the town, they have operate business for few generation.

So the business are passdown from father to son, and from son to their son again. So the other business operator knows each other very well, and they also know the person on the next lot, and the next, and the entire district. And that's what makes this place so happening, and people are so friendly.

Friends are gathering together to drink coffee, dinner, chit chat, they hang out together almost everyday. The rhythm here are very relaxing. No crowded traffic, not much pollution, well... although some places are a bit dirty. But overall its still a very nice place.

This is my favourite place, cause FOOD!!! and its cheap too!!! One of my must visit place each time when I reach Sibu. Simply love it.

Checkout the "Twin Tower" tsk tsk : )

I ate non-stop since morning I reach Sibu, and I can't stop, cause too many yummy food to eat.

Last but not least, my favourite. Sibu Kampua Noodles (extra large version)
