Bintulu Community Forum (BCF) – 3 weeks later
Apr 26, 2009 General
It’s been 17 days since Bintulu Community Forum (BCF) re-launched and so far it had attracted negligible 26 members! Hmm something I had not really hope for. Need to figure out how to promote the site effectively now – perhaps more social media exposure.

Rocker Amy of rock band Search has a blog, no kidding
Apr 10, 2009 General
Phewwiitt… Malaysia so called “king of rock” Amy the lead singer of local rock band Search has started a blog. Seriously. The blog aptly called “The Producer’s Blog“.
I remember screaming, jumping when they were performing in Miri in the early 90’s. Isabella is still my favorite tune. Amy “you’re rock la”

After weeks of trying restore corrupted database copy but to no avail – I decided to make a fresh install, instead. However, there is a trade-off – several members would have to re-register. Sorry guys.

Bintulu still retain its old charms as fishermen’s town
Apr 6, 2009 General
The fast industrializing Bintulu still retain very much of its old charm as fisherman’s town. The folks at Kampung Jepak, an old fishing village built on stilt fronting the town center is still largely dependent on the sea for a living. This is despite the fact that Bintulu is home to billion dollar industry – the oil and gas.
Upon completion of the Kemana bridge built in 1982 – an access road has been built linking the sleepy fishing village to the town center. However, crossing the river via the bridge would take at least 20 minutes compare to less than 5 minutes using the “tut tut” or a small ferry.
