    3 days from Lawas to Kuching is possible but knowing the road condition it won’t be fun.

    The route we took was fine. Probably the most unusual part for me was having the VIP escort the entire way. That said, there were long stretches of roads where we won’t see any civilisation for hours. I’ve gone to Ulu Pelagus via timber roads and THAT was a ride.

    That aside, how are Sarawakians feeling about 60 years of independence?

    Macam biasa jer. Just stay away from the city centre unless you want to be part of the jam festivities. 😏
