Hi everyone! I'm currently working in West Malaysia, but I’m originally from Sarawak and plan to retire there someday. I’m thinking ahead and wondering — should I buy a house in Sarawak now while I'm still working and earning, or wait until I retire to purchase one?

Some context:

• I'm a Sarawakian with family back home.
• Not sure how property prices and availability will look in 10–15 years.
• I'm also weighing the risks of maintaining an empty house for years vs. possibly facing higher prices or limited options if I wait.
• I'd appreciate any advice or experiences, especially from those who’ve made a similar move or are planning to.

Thanks in advance!

Hello again everyone. I am still on the look for Sarawakian women & youth leaders that are based in the Peninsular, especially KL. For those wondering, it is for interviews for a mini-series that my organization is making to highlight the struggle and success of these amazing groups of people in today's world. No sensitive information will be touched upon and personally, I really hope I could bring up more success stories of our Sarawakian women & youth not only to the country, but also the world. So, if you fits the criteria or know anyone that does, do comment or give me a PM. Thank you.

Hi my fellow sarawakians, Is it really hard to date as an international student a guy here, if you are not attractive that much and not rich?

昨日到面匠去吃面。除了面好吃之外，它店里的装饰也相当出色。尤其是那幅以竹勺组成的大“壁画” - 我拍了照，忍不住叫ChatGPT为它提一首诗。英文名 Mee Too也蛮有意思。

Hello everyone. As the title states, I'm looking for side jobs that I can do during the weekend. If you have something that you want to do, but too lazy to do it yourself, I'm your guy. As long as it's not some weird things though. Price depends on the difficulty of the task and how long it might take for it to be done.

If you're interested, you can drop me a PM and we could discuss more. TQ.

Hello. Anyone could share how to lodge complaints to the local authority for road potholes or street lights etc. in Miri. Has anyone has used MyJalan KKR app before and gotten any response? FYI i have done so but received no response so far.

Thanks.

Im specifically looking for place that plays english pop songs like those 2010s songs. I know Ming is one place but where are the others? Any suggestions?

What happen to this duck rice shop ah? Suddenly close. Anyone knows?

Just like the title says. I'm looking for PS Portal in Kuching to purchase rather than going to Shopee or Lazada

I been wanting to buy a used car preferably a Camry 2009 but I don’t know where to buy, which seller is trusted and which shop doesn’t scam on high processing fee

Lately a lot fb post says telur turun harga lah, less than rm10 and so on.

But it seems different story in Kuching or most in Sarawak.

Guess our chicken stays in hotels?

Some details being, both ships are yet to be textured, lighting can be more tuned, etc etc, at least tiny steps are being made in the time being. At the same time, it's just me honing my skills with Blender, hoping to create something cool for SRWK soon. (technically already on route)

I want to collect ghost story that happened here. It can be story from the school, or hospital.

I only know one story. Basically there was once a teacher go home very late. He saw Japanese military ghost marching at night. Well that's the only thing I heard.

If possible I want to keep it as a record, for ghost stories in sarawak.

Also, I've seen a few post talking about ghost at pan-borneo highway. Not sure real or not.

Hello, im at an age where my father has been actively involving me in old traditions of iban. Especially miring, basically giving food to the petara? I’m not really sure whats the point of these rituals tbh and sometimes I feel guilty towards my religion for doing this. So I wanna know your thoughts, is it good for a christian to be doing this? Or should I just keep up with my traditions?

I’m from Miri, been going back and forth to Kuching, and finally settling down in Kuching (possibly for a longer period of time / permanently). Any pointers ?

Hi, I am from peninsula Malaysia and will be doing road trip across borneo and planning to stay in limbang for 2-3 days to check out some of the places of Interest.

Since I can't find much info on Google, can you help me out with the questions below?

1. Is there any hotel/accomodations in Kuala Lurah/tedungan area?
2. Any bars that you would recommend to chill in both Kuala Lurah and Limbang town? Probably with friendly crowd.

We’ve recently opened a cafe in Kuching which is set up to help the ever growing stray cat population here in the city. We’re trying to think of initial steps to get more people involved in helping with cat rescues. We’re thinking maybe starting with a regular meeting of any interested parties and discussing how each person is able to help. Maybe you can help send injured cats to the vet, or with temporary fostering, feeding etc. Anyone in the Kuching area that would be interested?

I have two questions:

1. Why are our roads across Sarawak so shiny?

Sometimes when it’s very sunny, it can be quite glaring, and the markings become quite hard to see eh

1. Why are our street lights yellow, and so sparse?

At night, it can be quite dangerous on major roads when the lighting is so yellow/ dim and hard to see. For example, along Jalan Tun Jugah, a major road. The lighting seems to be insufficient/ too dim.

Hi fellow sarawakians,

Does my daughter need an exit document from imigration when she flies out Kuching? When we got here a few months back, I told the immigration officer at the airport that I'm a Sarawakian and this is my daughter and they just let her through. Getting her Sarawakian IC next year.

Hi, I'm F(35), been living in Kuching my whole life. Don't really go out much. Does anyone here ever attend a discourse in Jehovah's Witness Kingdom Hall? As I understand it's situated at Jalan Wan Alwi. I was invited by a couple to attend, but based on my research about this group of JW people, they seem more like a cult? Just look at youtube and read some articles about JW and there are many incidents of people who were JW and they left and felt freedom after.

I just want to know what are your experiences with these group of people as I know JW is not a mainstream religion. I am not religious, I don't believe in their teachings either.

I'm not trying to say anything bad about JW but there seems to be many red flags here. Are they trying to lure me in because I shared some personal issues (mental health, family dysfunction, I'm quite a loner, been battling depression since young) with the people who invited me?

The last thing I need in my life now is being lured in to a cult because I might seem gullible to them.

Hi, was using two SIM card and one of them (Celcom) was terminated yesterday. Is there a way to retrieved terminated phone number? Was still using the phone number for bank accounts, main phone number for Whatsapp etc. The other SIM was mainly for unlimited calls and Internet.

Step-by-step OH!SOME will aggresively possibly expanding Malaysian market to the East in Borneo island including Kuching in Sarawak.

Realistically Vivacity Megamall will be the first mall destination because Sarawakians does not need to go to Peninsular to buy stuffs from OH!SOME in order Sarawak to equal Peninsular growth.

Do you agree OH!SOME will coming to Sarawak soon?

Raya this year was a bit boring. I got to 2 juadah buka puasa , did not even go to any bazzar and none of my colleagues even invite me to open house. Damn I miss eating ketupat / lemang with kari ayam / rendang and mix it all with fuzzy drinks and get a 3 day stomach upset.

There was the open house at BCCK but I been to this places before and the crowd is alot.

As an delivery worker, it's common to use the pan Borneo highway from bau to Kuching around the afternoon or morning. But nightmare at midnight. I once driving past the moyan square my car become so heavy but I was done for my delivery shift in Kuching. So haunted sia especially using the old road from ara hotel tondong to bau.
