Yes...it was another slippery and dangerous diversion road! This time, the diversion road is just a few minutes before reaching the junction of Jalan Terbat & Jalan Mongkos in Tebakang, Serian. It also caused quite a massive traffic jam as early as 0630am on both ends of the tar sealed road.The tar sealed road is currently under repair due the damage done by the heavy downpour that happened some

TEBAKANG. Fri, July 10. A bus and a van were stuck on a muddy and slippery diversion road just before Kpg Payau Achau at Jalan Mongkos in Serian. That has caused massive traffic jams as early as 0630 am on both ends of the damaged main road. About a week ago, that section of the main road was damaged due to a heavy downpour. A contractor was called up to do the repair works. However, the repair

BIG BULLIES IN SARAWAK!

Just who are the biggies?Not funny that there is no typical signboard of “Project Kerajaan Barisan Nasional” can be seen anywhere though. Perhaps it can’t be there now because the dam is being built by a China company while the majority of workers are migrants. Then top it all, the Malaysian Rakyat is the pay master.READ MORE HERE: http://hornbillunleashed.wordpress.com/2009/05/05/%e2%80%

PHOTOGRAPHY ANYONE?

2009-05-20T09:59:00.006+08:00

Many people love to see photos or pictures but not many are able to take good photos or pictures of someone or sceneries or anything. I think that it takes more than just a good talent to be a good photographer. To me, just like in other job or profession, the love and passion for the job must be in one's heart before he or she can be a good at what he or she is doing.As for myself, I have been

ANOTHER SHOCKING NEWS OF THE DAY

2009-05-15T22:45:00.005+08:00

I have posted a report earlier where I mentioned about the temporary logging camp. Well, while we were at the hospital this evening, some local folks (friends actually) from that particular area also came to see our unfortunate staffs. I took the opportunity to ask about that logging camp. As I have suspected, that camp was illegal! They have made a police report at the Serian PD. However, I do

It's Friday evening and I was just arrived home from work. Then I got a call from a friend and he told me a shocking news. "Our friend and his wife had an accident!" he said. Short but enough to make my knees shaking. After getting more info from him, I rushed to the Serian General Hospital. Some of our own staffs were already there and some were still at the place of accident. Actually, I was

URGENT! Logging activities in progress!

2009-05-14T07:45:00.002+08:00

May 14, Local residents were surprised to see a number of people setting up a temporary camp near a small hill just by the side of Jalan Terbat-Mapu in Tebakang. It was found out later that they were all workers of a logging company. However, it is not known if the logging company is legal or illegal.Legal or not, this coming logging activities will surely destroy the beauty of the affected
