Well the picture explains it all right? haha.. So, the Spring.. the One big Mall in Kuching that by far for me has made other malls gone bankrupt..LOL just kidding. What i mean, the Spring has been the must 'lepak' mall for all people especially during weekend..because its got cinema, karaoke..everything under one roof.
I personally love the cinema there..its so classy..believe me.




But.. I want bowling! i want pool! i want MCD! dont worry.. the new SUMMER MALL is coming soon in Sarawak, i think its in Kota Samarahan, not far from Kuching. Just stay tuned to kuchingevents.blogspot.com for updates :)


So, the parking rates.. last time we used to have the flat rates no matter how long we pak our car, but now they gonna implement the new rates (see the picture). Its not that expensive though.. for those who think its expensive, do ride on our public transport.. save energy..save the environment.. save the traffic, so i DONT NEED TO WAKE UP EARLY TO AVOID TRAFFIC IN THE MORNING!! okay..im good..chill..

One of the most exciting Gawai Celebration is coming, and it is the Gawai Redeems Carvinal 2011. It is one of the biggest Gawai Event celebrated together by all the Bidayuhs and other races as well. But I only say Bidayuh, because Bidayuh rocks! xD

It is also called Pesta Birumuh, where Birumuh means farming in Bidayuh (rice planting).

Without a doubt, The Beauty Pegeant (Dayung Skora) contest is the highlight of the event! dont know? in Iban, its called Kumang gawai.. still dont know? in English its called Miss World..LOL!

Annah Rais Bidayuh Longhouse is located at Kampung Annah, not far from Borneo Highland and about 1 hour and 30 minutes driving from Kuching City. It is a very good place to visit especially by those who love the culture of Bidayuh ethnics. What special in Annah Rais Longhouse? In the longhouse, the visitor can see how the bidayuhs carry their lifestyles with lots of traditional cultures that still remain until now. There also, the visitors can see the real human skulls that according to the villagers, those skulls are the skulls of warriors of the past who had been defeated by the Bidayuh Headhunters. If you are lucky, they will allow you to see the special, supernatural, mystical human skull which is very shiny yellowish colour and very big in shape believed to be the biggest warrior ever defeated. Believe me, I have been there, and I have seen the skull, it was really 'special'. With rm8 entrance, the visitor will have one hour walk and get as much information from the villagers about the Bidayuh culture and the visitors also will have the chance to see the real Bidayuh traditional house.


Located at Annah Rais also, is the Hot Spring. About 10 minutes drive from the long house, the visitors can experience the natural and original hot spring. Beware of one specific pool where the water is really hot like approximately close to 100 degree celcius. So, you are free to bring your eggs to be boiled there. And bring also the swimming suits and extra clothes, as usual.
