砂拉越拨款225万令吉，社区爱滋病支援将扩展至美里和民都鲁，为期3年。 以古晋为起点的 Teratak Kasih Tok Nan 将把服务带到这两座城市。现有支援包括治疗协助、临时住宿、辅导、心理与社会支援、治疗跟进、福利援助及社区外展。 这次扩展的重点，是让感染 HIV 人士、家属及其他弱势群体，在较靠近居住地的地方获得协助。计划由砂拉越政府、马来西亚卫生部、马来西亚爱滋病基金会、Sunway 集团和 Yayasan PETRONAS 合作推动，也会配合砂拉越医疗援助计划（SHAPE），为符合条件的低收入慢性病患者提供前往外地专科医院的交通援助。 不过，拨款获宣布不代表美里和民都鲁的服务已经启用。服务地点、开放时间和转介方式仍待公布；这些资料出炉后，家庭才知道应到哪里求助、是否需要安排外地治疗行程。

Miri and Bintulu are set to receive expanded community HIV support under a RM2.25 million, three-year Sarawak allocation. Teratak Kasih Tok Nan, first established in Kuching as a halfway home and support centre, will extend services that include treatment support, temporary shelter, counselling, psychosocial care, treatment monitoring, welfare assistance and community outreach. The expansion brings this support model closer to people living with HIV, their families and other vulnerable groups in the two cities. It is being carried out through a partnership between the Sarawak Government, the Ministry of Health Malaysia, the Malaysian AIDS Foundation, Sunway Group and Yayasan PETRONAS. It will also complement the Sarawak Health Access Programme (SHAPE), which helps eligible low-income patients with travel costs when they need specialised chronic-care treatment in other cities. The funding has been announced, but the practical details for Miri and Bintulu are still to come: where the services will operate, when they will open and how referrals will be handled. Those details will matter to families planning treatment and travel.

林梦和老越商家、学校、医院及政府机构所依赖的网络，未来有望多一条不必绕经汶莱的砂拉越直连路线。 砂拉越数码经济机构（SDEC）与砂拉越电力公司（SESCO）8月26日在老越签署协议，计划利用州内现有通讯基础设施连接两地。整体网络衔接长度约1,926公里，并会采用 SESCO 的 Virtual Fibre 设施。 目前，老越商家面对电子付款网络问题，老越警察总部也曾出现网络连接不稳的情况。对北砂而言，这项工程要解决的不只是上网体验，也关系到线上学习、医疗、政府服务和紧急通讯能不能维持稳定。 协议目前只代表项目往前走了一步，尚未是正式启用通知。有关方面还没有公布上线时间、覆盖范围和速度目标；日后这些资料，才看得出乡区居民和各机构能否真正受惠。

Northern Sarawak’s connectivity plan is moving toward a direct Limbang–Lawas link, with the new route intended to reduce reliance on paths through Brunei. The agreement signed in Lawas on Aug 26 brings Sarawak Digital Economy Corporation (SDEC) and Syarikat SESCO Berhad (SESCO) together to use communications infrastructure already owned in Sarawak. It includes SESCO’s Virtual Fibre network, with the overall network alignment reported at about 1,926 kilometres. The gap is felt in everyday services. Businesses in Lawas have faced e-payment problems, while the Lawas district police headquarters has also experienced internet issues despite its role in disaster management. Better links would support education, healthcare, government services and emergency response across the two northern divisions. This is an infrastructure agreement, not a switch-on notice. The parties have not given a launch date, coverage map or speed target, so the next meaningful update will be where the route reaches and whether service interruptions ease.

这周末还没 plan？古晋和周边 8 月 28–30 日有这 4 个活动：摇滚、儿童营、青少年营，还有一场 Merdeka 前夕音乐会。 Rock In The City 2026 摇滚音乐节 8 月 29 日（星期六）8:15pm–12:00am Wisma Melayu，Jalan Diplomatik，古晋 喜欢现场摇滚的，星期六晚上可以冲这一场。现场主打 Malaysia、Brunei 和 Indonesia 的区域摇滚气氛，灯光、乐队和一起大声唱的观众，一个 late-night rock session 该有的都有。 [image: 1787875733175-event1-rock.jpg] 来源：Rock In The City 活动海报 FUN乐营 3.0 儿童假期营 8 月 29–30 日（星期六、日）8:00am–4:00pm；8 月 31 日（星期一）8:00am–12:00pm 卫理公会三马拉汉恩恩堂（Samarahan Grace Methodist Church），Taman Uni Central 给 5–12 岁小朋友的三天活动，有营会活动、点心、午餐、营会衣服和集体游戏。这个是需要报名的活动，已经报名的家庭记得看好时间；还想问名额的话，就直接向主办方确认。 [image: 1787875733264-event2-fun.jpg] 来源：FUN乐营 3.0 活动海报 SOAR3.0「我受够鸟」青少年营 8 月 28 日（星期五）6:00pm 开始至 8 月 31 日（星期一）中午 卫理公会蒙恩堂（Sungai Maong Methodist Church），Lorong Stapok Utara，古晋 这是给 13–18 岁青少年的 4 天 3 夜华语营会，主打团契、活动和完整的营会体验。同样属于报名活动，孩子已经报名的话，这个周末就要准备好参加啦。 [image: 1787875733323-event3-soar.jpg] 来源：SOAR3.0 活动海报 Konsert Di Ambang Merdeka「Dekat Di Hati」 8 月 30 日（星期日）8:00pm–11:00pm Kompleks Sukan Asajaya（Asajaya 体育综合场） 愿意从古晋驾车到周边走走的话，可以考虑这一场 Merdeka 前夕音乐会。Bella Astillah、Bob Yusuf、Hairee Francis 等歌手会和 Simfoni Orkestra Negeri Sarawak 一起演出，现场会是很有社区节庆感的音乐夜。 [image: 1787875733397-event4-asajaya.jpg] 来源：Pesta Asajaya 2026 活动海报 如果是我安排，我会星期六晚上去 Rock In The City，星期日再看 Asajaya 音乐会。户外活动出发前记得看主办方最新通知，毕竟砂拉越这个月已经有活动因为烟霾和天气调整了。

Still deciding what to do this weekend? Here are four things happening around Kuching from Friday to Sunday — one for rock fans, two for registered young participants, and one big Merdeka-eve concert just outside the city. Rock In The City 2026 Saturday, 29 August, 8:15pm–12:00am Wisma Melayu, Jalan Diplomatik, Kuching A proper late-night rock session is coming to town, with live performances and a regional Malaysia–Brunei–Indonesia rock spirit. If your ideal Saturday is loud guitars, lights and a crowd that sings along, this is the one to circle. [image: 1787875733175-event1-rock.jpg] Source: Rock In The City event poster FUN乐营 3.0 children’s holiday camp Saturday–Sunday, 29–30 August, 8:00am–4:00pm; continues Monday, 31 August, 8:00am–12:00pm Samarahan Grace Methodist Church, Taman Uni Central This one is for children aged 5–12, with camp activities, meals, snacks, camp clothing and plenty of group fun. It is a registration-based programme, so it is most suitable for families whose children are already signed up or who can still confirm a place with the organiser. [image: 1787875733264-event2-fun.jpg] Source: FUN乐营 3.0 event poster SOAR3.0「我受够鸟」youth camp Friday, 28 August, 6:00pm to Monday, 31 August, noon Sungai Maong Methodist Church, Lorong Stapok Utara, Kuching A four-day, three-night Chinese youth camp for ages 13–18, built around fellowship, activities and a full camp experience. This is another registration-based event, but it is worth knowing about if your teenager has already registered and is heading in this weekend.

The Asajaya Merdeka-eve concert brings together Bella Astillah, Bob Yusuf, Hairee Francis and other featured artistes with the Simfoni Orkestra Negeri Sarawak. Expect a big community-night atmosphere, music and fireworks-style celebration energy. [image: 1787875733397-event4-asajaya.jpg] Source: Pesta Asajaya 2026 event poster If I were planning the weekend, I would do Rock In The City on Saturday night and keep Sunday for the Asajaya concert.

一名失联的63岁女子，周四上午被发现在柏特拉再也诊所附近的10英尺深沟渠底部，已证实身亡。 公众发现女子后，柏特拉再也消拯局于上午9时34分接获投报并派员到场。消拯员把遗体从沟渠内救出，行动于上午10时47分结束，随后将遗体交由警方处理。 家人于周三（8月26日）发现她失联，孩子在前一晚察觉她不见。警方尚未公布她如何进入沟渠或死亡原因，案情仍在调查中。 寻找失联亲人的家属应尽快报案，并准备最后出现地点、时间和照片等资料。深沟渠现场有危险，不要自行下去搜寻或打捞，应让紧急救援人员处理。

A 63-year-old woman who had been reported missing was found dead in a 10-foot-deep drain near Petra Jaya Health Clinic on Thursday morning. Members of the public found the woman before firefighters from the Petra Jaya station were called in at 9.34am. Bomba recovered her from the drain, completing the operation at 10.47am, and handed the body to police for further action. Police had been informed that she was feared missing the previous day after her child noticed she was gone. No details have been announced about how she entered the drain or what caused her death. The circumstances remain under police investigation. Families looking for a missing relative should report it promptly and share the person’s last known location with police. A deep drain is not a place to enter alone—call emergency services and keep clear of the scene.

诗巫Teku村扩建计划进入落实阶段，拟兴建243间可负担房屋，工程预计需时36个月。 这项计划总值约1亿1700万令吉，项目地段已经移交砂拉越房屋发展机构（HDC）。目前先拨出35万令吉，在第13大马计划下展开地段清理和土方工程。 项目占地40.2英亩，规划兴建独立式高脚屋，每个屋地面积约8.3 points。新婚夫妇拟列为这一阶段的优先申请对象，但计划并非只开放给新婚夫妇，符合资格的诗巫公众也可以申请。 当局尚未公布申请截止日期和筛选细节。有意申请者应等待HDC正式说明；列为优先群体，也不代表会自动获批。

A 243-home affordable housing scheme at Teku, Sibu is moving into implementation, with the project site now handed to the Sarawak Housing Development Corporation (HDC). The Teku Village Expansion Scheme is estimated at about RM117 million and is planned for completion within 36 months. An initial RM350,000 has been allocated for site clearing and earthworks under the 13th Malaysia Plan. The 40.2-acre site is planned for detached homes built on stilts, with each lot measuring about 8.3 points. Newly married couples have been proposed as a priority group, but applications remain open to other members of the public who meet the eligibility requirements. No application deadline or final selection details have been announced. Priority for newlyweds should not be read as automatic approval; applicants will still have to meet the scheme’s requirements.

星期四砂拉越仍有5个空气监测站处于不健康水平；鲁勃安都（Lubok Antu）的API从早上8时的182升至中午12时的191，古晋则由97降至95，仍属中等。 砂拉越自然资源与环境局（NREB）中午12时的读数显示，Lubok Antu指数191、三马拉汉162、IPD Serian 158、Sri Aman 156，以及伦杜142，均列为不健康水平。Tebedu和其他监测站则处于中等水平。 不健康监测站的数量与早上相同，但各站读数已随时段改变。API是根据主要污染物的24小时滚动平均值计算，101至200属于不健康级别，可能加重心脏或肺部疾病患者的健康负担。 若要长时间进行户外活动，出门前先查看最新APIMS读数；高风险人士也应留意空气是否转差。

Sarawak still had five unhealthy air-quality stations on Thursday, and Lubok Antu’s reading rose from 182 at 8am to 191 by noon. Kuching remained in the moderate band, moving from 97 to 95. The noon table from Sarawak’s Natural Resources and Environment Board (NREB) listed Lubok Antu at 191, Samarahan at 162, IPD Serian at 158, Sri Aman at 156 and Lundu at 142 — all in the unhealthy range. Tebedu and the other listed stations were moderate. The number of unhealthy stations was unchanged from the morning reading, but the individual figures shifted during the day. API readings use a 24-hour running average of the dominant pollutant; 101 to 200 is classed as unhealthy and can worsen conditions for people with heart or lung complications. Anyone planning a long period outdoors should check the latest APIMS reading first. People in high-risk groups should take extra care if the air turns smoky or the API rises further.

古晋行程走到一半，天气又闷又热时，我会把亚参叻沙安排在 Vivacity Megamall 里面，省下特地绕去另一头找吃的时间。D'Laksa 的选择很直接：想吃酸香、鱼味较明显的叻沙，可以先从招牌亚参叻沙开始；同行的人口味不同，也有其他本地风味可选。 [image: 1787817096417-10-ciabihbmypktjyd8uzz8ryzt-qtt.jpg] Google Map / D'Laksa Vivacity Megamall 我会先点一碗招牌亚参叻沙，再配饮料。商场环境对家庭、清真饮食者和想顺便购物的游客比较方便，但少了老式露天茶室的气氛。预算可先抓每人约 RM10–20，价格与供应情况可能变动。 [image: 1787817096508-11-ciabihbxbsuh9hzwga8onl0thhyj.jpg] Google Map / D'Laksa Vivacity Megamall 第一次来，我会避开最拥挤的用餐时段。如果同行者不习惯明显的酸味，可以先问较温和的选择，或先合点一碗；这里的重点就是罗望子带出的酸香。吃完还可以留在 Vivacity 逛街、看电影，或顺路安排 Jalan Wan Alwi 一带的行程。 [image: 1787817096621-02-ciabihdnr3lykw-4qmamq4vmhrvg.jpg] Google Map / D'Laksa Vivacity Megamall 地点：L3-K004B，Vivacity Megamall 三楼，Jalan Wan Alwi，93350 Kuching，Sarawak。 打开 Google Maps 营业时间和菜单可能调整；如果要把它接在机场或导览行程之间，我会先确认当天资讯。想找有冷气、交通直观、清真友善的叻沙休息点，这家会是我愿意放进古晋路线的一站。 [image: 1787817096679-15-ciabihddy0fk3ucswtyh2kdmhzxl.jpg] Google Map / D'Laksa Vivacity Megamall

When a Kuching itinerary needs a cool-down stop, I would put an asam laksa break inside Vivacity Megamall rather than detour across town. D'Laksa keeps the choice simple: a tangy, fish-forward bowl for the traveller who wants a sharper tamarind kick, with other local-style options if the group cannot agree. [image: 1787817096417-10-ciabihbmypktjyd8uzz8ryzt-qtt.jpg] Google Map / D'Laksa Vivacity Megamall I would start with the signature asam laksa and add a drink. The mall setting suits families, halal-food seekers and anyone pairing lunch with shopping, though it will not feel like an old-school open-air coffee shop. A sensible budget is around RM10–20 per person, with prices and availability subject to change. [image: 1787817096508-11-ciabihbxbsuh9hzwga8onl0thhyj.jpg] Google Map / D'Laksa Vivacity Megamall I would come before the busiest meal period and keep the order focused. If sour flavours are not your thing, ask about a milder choice or share one bowl first; the tamarind-led profile is the point. Vivacity also makes this an easy rainy-day pairing with shopping, the cinema or nearby Jalan Wan Alwi stops. [image: 1787817096621-02-ciabihdnr3lykw-4qmamq4vmhrvg.jpg] Google Map / D'Laksa Vivacity Megamall Location: L3-K004B, Level 3, Vivacity Megamall, Jalan Wan Alwi, 93350 Kuching, Sarawak. Open in Google Maps Opening hours and menu items can change, so I would check the current outlet listing before making this a timed stop. For an easy, halal-friendly laksa pause with air-conditioning and straightforward access, this is a Kuching stop I would keep in the plan.

如果要在砂拉越行程里安排一段真正有雨林分量的旅程，我不会把姆鲁塞进从古晋出发的匆忙一日游，而会单独留几晚。航班衔接、抵达后的接送和天气，都是路线的一部分，不是最后才处理的小事。 [image: 1787798294462-mulu-landscape-small.jpg] 来源： Wikimedia Commons — Gunung Mulu National Park. Sarawak, Borneo (14358333418) 姆鲁位于砂拉越美里省，从古晋没有适合临时开车前往的捷径。抵达后，节奏选择很重要：第一次来或带家人，可以先排展示洞穴和规划好的步道；愿意多留几天、也有体力的人，再把长距离步道、船程和探洞活动放进去。公园目前的活动类型很丰富，出发前先确认同行者想走轻松路线还是探险路线。 [image: 1787798295004-pinnacles-resized.jpg] 来源： Wikimedia Commons — Mulu Pinnacles 如果是我，会至少住两晚，行程允许的话留三晚更从容。这样才有空间应付航班、湿滑路面、船程，以及需要导览或公园安排的活动。鞋子要能走湿地，背包放一套干衣服和轻便雨具；这里不是带相机到门口再临时拼路线的地方。 [image: 1787798295712-clearwater-resized.jpg] 来源： Wikimedia Commons — Boat landing at Clearwater Cave, Gunung Mulu National Park, April 2025 01 姆鲁的精彩是一路叠起来的：河道、石灰岩、巨大的洞穴空间和低地雨林会轮流出现，不只是一张山景照。喜欢地貌、走路和慢节奏的人，会比只想找咖啡店、容易停车或两小时结束景点的人更适合这里。较轻松的路线对家庭比较友善，但湿滑地面和上下船仍要留意。 [image: 1787798296789-winds-resized.jpg] 来源： Wikimedia Commons — Cave of The Winds, Gunung Mulu National Park, April 2025 01 姆鲁官方页面目前仍列出住宿、导览和不同类型的洞穴与雨林活动，景点本身也仍在接待安排中。不过票价、配套、导览、最后入场时间和个别路线会变；下雨或维修也可能影响当天行程。订机票前先看最新活动与预约页面，网页列出的项目不代表你所选日期每一条路线都一定开放。 想把砂拉越看得更深、更野一点的人，值得为姆鲁多花交通成本；若你要的是古晋市区内轻松停车、两小时逛完的去处，它就会显得太费安排。你会先走展示洞穴，还是把时间留给长步道？

If I were shaping a Sarawak trip around one serious rainforest detour, I would give Mulu several nights instead of trying to turn it into a hurried day trip from Kuching. The flight connection, transfer and weather are part of the route, not small details to solve at the last minute. [image: 1787798294462-mulu-landscape-small.jpg] Source: Wikimedia Commons — Gunung Mulu National Park. Sarawak, Borneo (14358333418) Mulu is in Sarawak’s Miri Division and has no useful drive-in shortcut from Kuching. Once you arrive, the choice is quite clear: show caves and marked walks for a manageable first visit, or longer treks, boat sections and adventure caving for travellers ready to give the park more time. The official programme currently covers all of those styles, so the group should agree on pace before booking. [image: 1787798295004-pinnacles-resized.jpg] Source: Wikimedia Commons — Mulu Pinnacles I would book at least two nights and prefer three if the itinerary allows. That leaves breathing room for flights, wet paths, boat transfers and activities that depend on guides or park arrangements. Proper shoes, a dry change of clothes and a small waterproof layer matter more here than packing for a quick photo stop. [image: 1787798295712-clearwater-resized.jpg] Source: Wikimedia Commons — Boat landing at Clearwater Cave, Gunung Mulu National Park, April 2025 01 The reward is the sequence: river approach, limestone walls, huge cave chambers and lowland rainforest, rather than one single viewpoint. People who enjoy geology, walking and a slower trip will get more from Mulu than visitors looking for cafés, easy parking or a compact attraction beside Kuching. Families can keep to the gentler programme, but wet surfaces and boat steps still deserve care. [image: 1787798296789-winds-resized.jpg] Source: Wikimedia Commons — Cave of The Winds, Gunung Mulu National Park, April 2025 01 The park and its activities are currently listed as operating, with accommodation and tours available through the official Mulu site. Fees, packages, guide arrangements and last-entry details can change, and rain or maintenance can affect individual routes. Check the current activity and booking pages before fixing flights; a tour being listed does not guarantee every cave or trail will run on your dates. Mulu is worth the extra logistics when you want Sarawak to feel wide, wet and properly wild. It will disappoint anyone expecting an easy two-hour city outing, but that is also the point of choosing it. Would you start with the show caves, or keep more days for the longer trails?

8月25日风暴造成住家受损，古晋南市政局（MBKS）正与发展商协调，为受影响居民安排临时住处和紧急维修。 无法安全留在家中的居民会先获安排临时安置，之后再处理屋顶暴露部分、建筑防护，以及维修范围和费用评估。 古晋甘榜Tabuan Dayak一户住家在当日下午约3时被附近公寓刮落的铁皮屋顶击中；当时在屋内的岳母和孩子都没有受伤。古晋多个地区也传出树倒和其他风暴损坏情况，但最新安排没有说明涉及多少户住家，以及全部维修何时完成。 若住家屋顶不稳，或周围有松脱的建材，应先远离受损范围，尤其是在可能再下雨的情况下。遇到即时危险应拨打紧急求助电话，受损建筑确认安全前不要进入。

MBKS is working with developers to arrange temporary accommodation and urgent repairs for Kuching South households damaged by Tuesday’s storm. Residents who cannot safely remain at home are to be housed temporarily first. The council then plans to cover exposed sections, inspect the damage and work out the scope and cost of repairs with the developers. At Kampung Tabuan Dayak, roofing sheets torn from a nearby apartment block hit one home at about 3pm on Aug 25. A mother-in-law and child who were inside escaped unhurt. Fallen trees and other storm damage were also reported around Kuching, but the latest update did not say how many homes need assistance or when all repairs will be completed. Anyone facing an unstable roof or loose building material should keep clear of the affected area, especially if more rain arrives. Call emergency services if there is immediate danger, and do not enter a damaged structure until it is safe.

周四（27日）早上8时，砂拉越5个空气监测站录得不健康水平；古晋指数97，仍属中等。 砂拉越自然资源与环境局最新读数显示，鲁勃安都（Lubok Antu）指数最高，达182；三马拉汉164、西连警区（IPD Serian）162、斯里阿曼155，以及伦杜106。 空气污染指数采用24小时滚动平均，雨势、风向和烟霾移动都可能令读数改变。区域天气监测也显示，南部东盟部分地区持续干燥，加里曼丹仍有热点和烟柱，砂拉越西部的烟霾风险尚未完全消退。 指数101至200属于不健康水平，心肺疾病患者所面对的健康风险较高。古晋居民出门前可先查看最新APIMS读数；若空气明显变差，应减少剧烈户外活动，也别让儿童和高风险家人长时间留在烟霾中。

Five Sarawak air-quality stations were in the unhealthy range at 8am on Thursday, while Kuching remained moderate. The Natural Resources and Environment Board’s latest reading put Lubok Antu highest at 182, followed by Samarahan at 164, IPD Serian at 162, Sri Aman at 155 and Lundu at 106. Kuching recorded 97. The readings are based on a 24-hour running average, so the situation can shift with rain, wind and smoke movement. Regional monitoring also points to dry conditions and fire activity in parts of Kalimantan, with a continuing risk of haze reaching western Sarawak. An API reading from 101 to 200 is classed as unhealthy, with greater concern for people who have heart or lung conditions. Kuching residents can check the latest APIMS reading before spending long periods outdoors; if the air turns visibly smoky, reduce strenuous activity and keep children and high-risk family members away from prolonged exposure.
