Kuching Waterfront-Solar Energy.

 

The new Kuching City waterfront extension is environment friendly,They are install with eco-friendly electrical power or solar energy.This is clean energy and lower cost to the city council to run the new two water fountain build near to the waterfront.

The solar panel and the fountain but the ugly building is yet to be make over to new image.(perhaps the owner is looking forward for sponsor from the city council)

What about the local people of Kuching.,are they environmental friendly .Oh my God, just look at the rubbish.They don't even bother to say thank you (not to me) but to the government who have spend so much on tax payer monies to beauty the little city of Kuching.

Leeches Suck Your Blood.

I did mention yesterday that I have a whole bunch of images in my hard disk that I have yet to blog about.After viewing PAK ZAWI(Life As I See It)posting about BAKAM with Leeches only then I remember I have the photo(above) of leeches that I shot during my trip to border market in Sarikin,Bau Sarawak.

Yes,Leeches suck your blood but some believe that could be healthy for you.

See all National Geographic Videos :

The project planting of Jatropha Curcas in Sarawak in Kampong Singai by the Bidayuh is still in the early stage. The Bidayuh from Singai Village. Planting jatropha in face of rising oilprices.The Bidayuh of Singai community is exploring the prospect of planting jatropha on a commercial basis to privide the raw material for bio-fuel .
