Two Cities in One Night

A quick stop-over in Kuching, the last time I set foot here was 33 years ago. Although only an hour flight away there is nothing really hitting me to visit this place over those years.

One might say the same can be said for Bumi Bertuah for outsiders. So only if there are real attractions or purpose, then tourist will be hoarding in numbers.

Then hopped on the connecting flight to a familiar ground - Singapore. The place seemed to be at this time of the year in a festive mood. Decorative lights are everywhere, meant to make the place appealing and lively to tourists and shoppers alike. In fact nowadays there seemed to be more foreign faces than locals, especially in the business district. It is estimated that about one to two million out of the five million population here are foreigners!
