    A completed booster-pump upgrade is easing long-running water-pressure problems in four villages in Bau’s Singai area. The RM3 million project doubled the Kampung Apar suction tank’s capacity from 50,000 to 100,000 gallons. Five new high-density polyethylene tanks were installed, and a new pipeline now carries water to the reservoir at Kampung Barieng, serving Kampung Apar, Kampung Segong, Kampung Barieng and Kampung Tabung. The pump has been commissioned and handed over to the Sarawak Rural Water Supply Department. The upgrade was aimed at homes on higher ground, where the old system struggled to maintain pressure as the villages expanded. Another RM8 million project to lay a 300mm HDPE pipeline in Jagoi is nearing completion. Additional booster pumps are planned for Kampung Bobak and Kampung Senibung, but no dates have been given for those installations. Residents have already seen an improvement during this year’s prolonged dry spell. The next test will be whether the pressure stays reliable through the dry season and the higher demand during festive periods. Location: Singai, Bau

    A fishing trip in Bau turned fatal after a 29-year-old man fell into Sungai Taman Limbang late Thursday night. Nailson Phillip was fishing with several friends when he suddenly fell face-first into the river at about 11.30pm. A friend pulled him out and they took him to Bau Hospital. He was pronounced dead at about 12.23am Friday. Police said initial checks found no suspicious injuries or signs of criminal elements. The case is being investigated as sudden death, with a post-mortem to determine the cause. The cause and legal classification should be left to the police, medical team or rescue authorities. Drivers and bystanders should keep clear of the scene, avoid sharing distressing images and pass genuine information directly to investigators. [image: 1787306951160-bau-river-2108.jpg]

    Haze conditions have returned to Bau, with air quality readings reaching unhealthy levels near the Sarawak-West Kalimantan border. [image: 1786324232107-haze-bau-1.jpg] Tasik Biru assemblyman Datuk Henry Harry Jinep urged residents to reduce outdoor activities, especially when the Air Pollution Index (API) climbs towards 150. He said this is an annual occurrence caused by cross-border burning from Indonesia. "Nothing much we can do because this is coming from the other side," he told reporters after a site visit to the Serikin ICQS project. Those with sensitive respiratory conditions are advised to take extra precautions.

    There is a different kind of quiet at Mount Singai. Not the empty kind, but the kind where your shoes hit wooden steps, the forest gets cooler, and everyone suddenly talks softer. [image: 1785722988215-singai_0.jpg] Source: DayakDaily / Nancy Nais file photo [image: 1785722988334-singai_1.jpg] Source: DayakDaily / CMPC [image: 1785722988526-singai_2.jpg] Source: Trip.com traveller photo [image: 1785722988722-singai_3.jpg] Source: Trip.com traveller photo [image: 1785722988793-singai_4.jpg] Source: Wikiloc trail photo I like Mount Singai because it is not just another “go up, take photo, come down” hill. The first part feels like a pilgrimage walk: wooden stairs, shaded forest, and the 14 Stations of the Cross leading up toward the Catholic Memorial and Pilgrimage Centre. DayakDaily describes the CMPC as sitting halfway up the green slope, and notes that this first section usually takes around 30 to 40 minutes. After that, the mood changes. The summit trail is more raw, with roots, ropes, and steeper sections. Wanderlog’s review summary puts it quite honestly: safe and straightforward, but still sweaty enough to feel earned. One recent reviewer said the church section is mostly wooden staircase, then the jungle trail begins around Station 13, with ropes helping on the steeper parts. Trip.com reviews also point out the same thing: Mount Singai is beautiful, but it is a proper stamina check. One visitor called it a church prayer mountain, then said the last stretch through the forest can take at least 70 minutes from the midway area. So yes, this one looks peaceful in photos, but your legs will know. What makes the climb special is the mix of nature and local story. DayakDaily’s biodiversity feature says Mount Singai has more than 1,178 recorded plant species and over 50 macrofungi species. That explains why the forest feels so alive even before you reach any viewpoint. Tatknows adds the practical local detail: it is less than an hour from Kuching, the church section has proper stairs, and the peak trail can take another 1 to 2 hours depending on pace. Useful info: Location: Jalan Singai area, around the Bau side of Greater Kuching Best time: early morning, especially if you want cooler weather and clearer views Cost: generally treated as free entry by visitor guides, but bring small cash just in case parking or local upkeep arrangements change Time needed: about 30-40 minutes to CMPC, then roughly 1-2 hours more if continuing to the summit Bring: water, proper shoes, mosquito repellent, small towel, and a dry shirt Note: after rain, the trail can get slippery, so do not force the summit if the weather turns bad My honest take: go for the church and forest even if you are not planning to summit. But if you do push to the top, start early, go slow, and do not leave rubbish behind. Kuching people, siapa pernah naik sampai puncak? Was it harder than expected or okay saja?

    Police seized about RM92,000 worth of suspected untaxed cigarettes and alcohol during a Bau raid. [image: 1785470823330-bau_contraband_20260731.jpg] Source: Sarawak Tribune An 18-year-old shop worker was detained after police inspected a premises in Bau on July 30. Bau police chief Supt Mohd Haide A. Rahman said the raid was carried out at about 10.15am under Op Taring Alpha 1 and 2 by the General Operations Force Sarawak Brigade Intelligence Branch. Police said the worker could not show valid ownership or customs documents for the goods. The seizure involved 212 cartons of cigarettes and 99 cartons of assorted alcoholic beverages, all believed to be untaxed. Investigation Police said the suspect had worked at the premises for about two months with a monthly salary of RM1,700. The case is being investigated under Section 135(1)(d) of the Customs Act 1967.

    That short Bau drive where you suddenly feel Kuching traffic is far behind you? Bung Bratak gives exactly that kind of reset. [image: 1784859011710-bungbratak_02_hilltop.jpg] Source: Wilson Chin Blog [image: 1784859011845-bungbratak_03_baruk.jpg] Source: Wilson Chin Blog [image: 1784859011923-bungbratak_04_view.jpg] Source: Travel Guide Kuching [image: 1784859011982-bungbratak_05_dayakdaily.jpg] Source: DayakDaily Bung Bratak is not the kind of place where you go expecting malls, cafes and air-con comfort. It is more like: park the car, climb a bit, sweat a little, then reach a quiet hilltop with longhouse-style buildings, forest around you, and a view that makes the effort feel fair. From the official Bung Bratak Heritage Centre page, the place is at Kampung Tembawang Sauh, Bau, and is managed by the Bung Bratak Heritage Association. Their own write-up mentions two longhouses, a lodge, conference hall, mini museums, offices, a traditional dining hall and kitchen, plus nature and hill scenery. KuchingBorneo adds the useful background: the centre sits around 1,000 feet above sea level and represents what was once a large hill settlement with seven longhouses. It also notes that visitors can either hike up or drive up, with the walk usually around 15 to 30 minutes. The more practical comments are where this place gets interesting. Wanderlog's Google review summary gives it 4.5/5 from 95 reviews. One reviewer called it a good beginner hike and said it took about 30 minutes, with a breathtaking view at the end. Another said the stairs make the trail beginner-friendly, but the view is the reward. There is also a fair warning from someone who went during Bung Bratak Day: crowds and traffic can get heavy when there is an event. Wilson Chin's hike write-up is useful if you are going for the walking part: he mentioned fallen leaves, mosquitoes on the trail, the RM10 entry experience during his visit, Mount Singai visible from the centre, and a separate waterfall path with a bamboo bridge. Travel Guide Kuching also points out the weekend feel nicely: bamboo shrubs along the way, views toward Mt Singai and Matang, a small museum, a big covered activity area, and traditional food that may only be available on weekends or by advance arrangement. My honest take: this one is best for people who want a light outdoor morning, not a full hardcore hike. Go early, bring water, wear shoes with grip, and do not assume the entrance fee or food availability is still the same as older blog posts. The safest move is to check their Facebook page or call before driving out. Useful info: Place: Bung Bratak Heritage Centre, Kampung Tembawang Sauh, Q115, 94000 Bau Drive: around 45 to 60 minutes from Kuching, depending on your starting point and road conditions Walk up: commonly reported around 15 to 30 minutes Opening hours listed on Wanderlog: around 8am to 4pm on weekdays, 7.30am to 4pm on weekends Contact listed online: +60 19-858 1515 Best time: morning, especially if you want cooler weather and clearer views Bring: water, mosquito repellent, comfortable shoes, small cash Would you go here for the view, the heritage side, or just to escape the city for half a day?

    A 52-year-old Bidayuh man from Bau has been identified with one of the world's rarest blood types. [image: 1784682372695-bau-bombay-blood.jpg] Source: The Borneo Post / Facebook, Blood Bank Hospital Umum Sarawak The Sarawak General Hospital Blood Bank said Mak Nyortes from Kampung Bogag, Bau, has the rare Bombay blood group, also known as the hh phenotype. He only found out in November 2025 after blood tests and further checks at the hospital. Why this blood type is different People with the Bombay blood group may look like type O in routine screening, but they cannot receive blood from A, B, AB or O donors. They can only receive blood from another person with the same Bombay blood group. That is why proper screening and donor registration matter so much. The SGH Blood Bank said about 20 people in Malaysia have been identified with this blood group. Worldwide, around four million people are believed to have it. Mak hopes his story will encourage more people to understand blood donation, go for proper screening, and help when there is a need.

    Ever been inside a cave so dark you literally can't see your hand in front of your face? That's Wind Cave. [image: 1783305770226-windcave-entrance.jpg] Source: Malaysia Traveller Unlike Fairy Cave which is basically one huge well-lit chamber, Wind Cave (also called Gua Angin / Lubang Angin) is made up of three completely unlit tubular passages. You walk on a 1km plankwalk through pitch black tunnels with nothing but your torch and the high-pitched squeaking of thousands of bats. One reviewer on TripAdvisor put it well: "Wind cave is made up of pitch black passage ways (rent a torch when you get there RM4)." — TripAdvisor user [image: 1783305770305-windcave-plankwalk.jpg] Source: Sarawak Forestry Corporation The reserve is managed by Sarawak Forestry Corporation and covers about 6.16 hectares including the cave and surrounding limestone forest. There are four trails you can do in about an hour: Cave Bat Trail, Riverview Trail, Jungle Trail, and Fossil Trail. Real visitor experiences: A Facebook user shared: "I went to Wind Cave Nature Reserve recently with my daughter. The location is about a half hour's drive from Kuching. A good place for watching bats nestlings..." Another blogger (Ummi Around Malaysia) said: "I switched off my torch for a minute or so to see what it would be like. Rarely have I experienced such complete, enveloping darkness with only the high-pitched squeals of bats for company." [image: 1783305770371-windcave-cavelight.jpg] Source: Sarawak Forestry What you'll find inside: 14 species of bats, including Dusky Fruit Bats Thousands of Black Nest Swiftlets (their nests are made from saliva — you can see them clinging to the cave ceiling) Stalactites, stalagmites, and limestone pillars formed over 60 million years Fossils and scallop marks on the walls showing ancient water flow Practical Info: Open: 9AM - 5PM daily (4 time slots: 9-11, 11-1, 1-3, 3-5) Entrance: RM 1 (Malaysian adults) / RM 5 (Non-Malaysian) Torch rental: RM 4-5 at the entrance (trust me, your phone light is NOT enough) Wear grippy shoes — it gets slippery 🧢 Wear a hat unless you want bat droppings in your hair Must register online or scan QR at entrance (slot limit 200 pax) [image: 1783305770538-windcave-fairyarea.jpg] Source: Amansar Travel At the end of the cave, the plankwalk brings you out to the banks of Sungai Sarawak Kanan where there's a small beach, changing rooms, and picnic area. Perfect for a cooling river swim after the cave. Wind Cave is just 5km from Bau town and about 45 minutes drive from Kuching city. Most people combine it with Fairy Cave and the Siniawan Night Market for a full day trip. Location: Bau, Sarawak (just off Jalan Bau-Kuching) Google Maps rating: 4.3/5 (798 reviews) Have you been to Wind Cave? How was your experience? Share in the comments!

    Over 2,000 NCR land titles handed over in Bau today — the biggest single distribution in the area yet. Tasik Biru assemblyman Datuk Henry Harry Jinep presented 2,109 Native Customary Rights (NCR) land titles at the newly completed Bidayuh Cultural Centre (BCC) in Bau. This brings the total land titles issued in Tasik Biru since 2018 to 6,168 lots. Location: Bidayuh Cultural Centre, Bau (about 40 minutes from Kuching) Breakdown: 1,316 individual agricultural & residential lots to 1,142 recipients across 7 villages 793 lots under SALCRA scheme covering OPE Bratak and OPE Jagoi 2 communal reserve gazette notifications covering 130.7 hectares (Banan + Senggi Poak) [image: 1782108146557-ncr-land-bau.jpg] ️ "This didn't happen overnight," said Henry, who is also Deputy Transport Minister (Riverine & Marine). The ground surveys started back in 2007 through collaboration between DBNA and the Land & Survey Department. The handover reflects the Sarawak government's push under PCDS 2030 to resolve long-standing NCR land issues across the state. Source: DayakDaily What do you think?

    有人讲去 Siniawan 只是为了吃东西,坦白讲我以前也这样想。 直到有一次我傍晚 5 点多到,亲眼看着整条老街从安静变成灯火通明——那个过程,才是真正的 magic。 新尧湾(Siniawan)这条老街可不是普通的 pasar malam。1840 年就已经存在的小镇,当年还是 James Brooke 白拉惹时代的重要据点。整条街只有 24 间木板老店屋,一到周末傍晚,红灯笼亮起来的时候,整个氛围直接穿越回百年前。我朋友第一次去的时候讲:"感觉像走进电影场景。" 好了,讲重点——来这里吃什么? 必吃清单: 🥢 Lemang Periuk Kera(猪笼草饭) — 这是 Siniawan 的招牌!糯米塞在猪笼草里面蒸熟,香气独特,别的地方找不到。 🥢 Ngoh Hiang(五香肉卷) — Sarawak Tourism 官方的 top 5 推荐之一。先蒸后煎,外脆里嫩,配一罐冰啤酒简直人生巅峰。有个阿伯跟我讲他每个星期来就是为了这盘 Ngoh Hiang。 🥢 蚝煎(Oyster Omelette) — TripAdvisor 游客点名推荐的菜。这里的蚝煎炸到薄脆像 roti tisu,蚝又大又新鲜。 🥢 Sarawak Laksa — Anthony Bourdain 说是"breakfast of gods",在 Siniawan 吃别有一番风味。椰浆汤底够浓,虾也新鲜。 🥢 Manok Pansoh(竹筒鸡) — Dayak 经典菜,鸡肉塞竹筒里慢煮,香茅和木薯叶的香味直接渗透进肉里。 🥢 Kolo Mee — Sarawak 人的灵魂食物,Siniawan 的版本一样不输市区。 真实评价整理: 从 Google 评论、TripAdvisor 到本地 FB 群组,综合来看游客喜欢的是氛围和特色食物,但也有一些吐槽——周末人多时停车位很难找,部分摊位价格比市区略高。一个 Wanderlog 用户的评论很中肯:"有些偏贵、炸物太多,但整体氛围和一两条街的 vintage feel 还是很值得来。" 我个人觉得:如果你当它是"平价路边摊"可能会有点失望。但当作"周末 outing + 百年老街体验 + 吃特色美食"的话,这个 package 是蛮值的。 实用资讯: 营业时间:每逢星期五、六、日 傍晚 6pm 开始 地点:Siniawan Old Town, Bau(距古晋市区 21km,约 30 分钟车程) 入场:免费!吃多少花多少 交通: Grab 从 Kuching 市区约 RM30(建议安排回程,晚上那边 Grab 比较少) 自驾的话 Parking 位有限,建议 5:30pm 之前到 公共巴士 Bus No.2 从 Jalan Masjid 出发,单程 RM3.50(但不 recommend,时间不准) Tips: 最好 5:30-6pm 到,看夕阳 + 灯笼亮起来的过渡 带现金!大部分摊位不收卡/eWallet 穿舒服的鞋,整条街是石板路 可以顺便安排白天去 Bau 的仙洞或风洞,傍晚再来 Siniawan [image: 1781230300144-img1.jpg] 来源:TripAdvisor [image: 1781230300408-img2.jpg] 来源:New Straits Times [image: 1781230300710-img3-resized.jpg] 来源:Amansar Travel [image: 1781230301194-img4.jpg] 来源:Amansar Travel [image: 1781230301390-img5.jpg] 来源:Trip.com 你去过 Siniawan Night Market 吗?留言分享你最喜欢吃的摊位!或者有什么 hidden gem 要爆料? #古晋 #Kuching #Siniawan #新尧湾 #Sarawak #周末好去处 #KuchingNightMarket #古晋夜市

    Let me be real with you: most Kuching folks hear "Fairy Cave" and just go "oh yeah, went there ages ago..." And that's it. But if you actually give it a proper visit — pick the right time, take the right trails — this place hits way harder than you'd expect. Located in Bau, about 40-45 minutes from Kuching city. A four-storey green staircase takes you up to the cave entrance. The moment you step inside and see natural light flooding down from the massive opening above — your phone camera won't know what hit it. [image: 1781143757552-01.jpg] Source: Malaysia-Traveller [image: 1781143766889-02.jpg] Source: Malaysia-Traveller What people are saying: Here's the thing — Fairy Cave reviews are surprisingly stacked. Out of 2,423 ratings on Wanderlog, it averages 4.7/5. Not bad for a cave that costs RM1 for locals. One reviewer on Wanderlog put it perfectly: "The caves are truly breathtaking, with stunning formations, beautiful plants, and well-maintained paths. The staff were also friendly — it's easily one of the highlights of a trip to Kuching." Another traveler on Trip.com didn't hold back: "These caves are a class of their own. I have seen caves in Australia and these are beyond comparison." And this Trip.com review says it best: "By far this was my favourite thing to do in Sarawak, beats Bako park. I spent the majority of this on my own on the dark trail, just me and the drips, absolutely loved it." Cool local detail from Malaysia-Traveller: inside the cave there's a stalagmite that looks uncannily like Guan Yin (Goddess of Mercy). Locals actually leave joss sticks there ️ [image: 1781143767356-03.jpg] Source: CPH Travel [image: 1781143767835-04-resized.jpg] Source: DayakDaily 🧗 Three trails, three levels: 1️⃣ Twilight Trail (main route) — Concrete paths & steel rails. Most people handle this fine. You'll see the cave transition from dark to sunlit 2️⃣ Dark Trail — Bring a torch. Bats, swiftlets, and at the deepest platform... reportedly the occasional viper 3️⃣ Gunung Kapor Summit Trail — 2-hour trek, needs a permit. Less trafficked but worth it if you're fit ️ Heads up: the entrance passage is narrow — claustrophobic folks, be warned. Some metal stair sections are seriously steep. [image: 1781143768473-05.jpg] Source: CPH Travel Quick Info: Malaysian adult: RM1 Foreign adult: RM5 Senior (60+): FREE Child (6-17): RM2 Under 6: FREE Hours: 8:30am — 4:30pm (Tue-Sun) Closed-toe shoes MANDATORY (rentals RM3) Torch rental: RM5 Getting there: Self-drive is easiest. Grab works too (~RM30-40 one way). Tour packages usually bundle Fairy + Wind Cave for RM200 half-day with lunch. Pro tips: • Go early morning — fewer people + best natural lighting for photos • Bring water & wear light sports attire. Humidity inside is real • Hit Wind Cave right after — it's literally 5 minutes away • Headlamp > handheld torch for the Dark Trail Been to Fairy Cave? Drop your best photo in the comments!

    老实说,古晋人提到 Fairy Cave 的反应通常是:「哦那个仙洞啊,很久以前去过一次……」 然后没了。 但你如果认真去一次 — 尤其是选对时间、走对路线 — 这个东西真的比你想象中震撼很多。 就在 Bau,离古晋市大概 40-45 分钟车程。有一段四层楼高的绿色楼梯带你进洞,走进去的瞬间,那个光从洞顶打下来的画面 — 讲真的,手机拍到没电那种。 [image: 1781143757552-01.jpg] 来源:Malaysia-Traveller [image: 1781143766889-02.jpg] 来源:Malaysia-Traveller 去过的人都怎么说? 我在搜 review 的时候发现一个现象:Fairy Cave 的 review 意外地高,而且很多人说它是「Sarawak trip 最惊喜的一站」。 Wanderlog 上 2423 条评价,平均 4.7/5 — 有人留言说: 「The caves are truly breathtaking, with stunning formations, beautiful plants, and well-maintained paths. The staff were also friendly — it's easily one of the highlights of a trip to Kuching.」 Trip.com 上有位游客说得很夸张但我觉得不算过分: 「These caves are a class of their own. I have seen caves in Australia and these are beyond comparison.」 还有一个 Trip.com review 讲得太真实了: 「By far this was my favourite thing to do in Sarawak, beats Bako park. I spent the majority of this on my own on the dark trail, just me and the drips, absolutely loved it.」 Malaysia-Traveller 的博主 David 也提到一个细节:洞里有一个 stalagmite 长得很像观音菩萨,当地人真的会在前面插香 ️ [image: 1781143767356-03.jpg] 来源:CPH Travel [image: 1781143767835-04-resized.jpg] 来源:DayakDaily 🧗 三个 Trail,三个级别: 1️⃣ Twilight Trail(主路线) — 水泥阶梯 + 钢扶手,大部分人都能走。一路可以看到整个洞穴从暗到亮的过渡 2️⃣ Dark Trail(暗路) — 需要手电筒,里面有蝙蝠 + swiftlet,最深处的平台据说偶尔能看到蝮蛇 3️⃣ Gunung Kapor Summit Trail — 2 小时登山路线,需要拿 permit,比较少人走 ️ 注意:入口那段通道很窄,幽闭恐惧症的朋友可能要三思。金属楼梯有些地方很陡。 [image: 1781143768473-05.jpg] 来源:CPH Travel 实用资讯: 本地人:RM1 外国人:RM5 乐龄(60+):免费 小孩(6-17):RM2 6岁以下:免费 开放:8:30am — 4:30pm (Tue-Sun) 包鞋必须穿!(没穿可以租 RM3) 手电筒租 RM5 怎么去:自己开车最方便(Grab 也可以,单程大概 RM30-40),或者跟 tour 配套(一般 Fairy + Wind Cave 半天 RM200 左右包午餐) 小 tips: • 早上去!人少 + 光线正好拍 • 带水 + 穿轻便运动装,洞里湿度高 • 顺便去隔壁 Wind Cave,两个洞距离 5 分钟车程 • Dark Trail 一定要用手电筒/头灯 你去过 Fairy Cave 吗?分享一下你拍到最美的照片! 还是你比较喜欢 Wind Cave?下面留言聊聊
