A land of Natural Resources

Like Sarawak is known to international visitors primarily because of the extraordinary natural wonders of its national parks, including Gunung Mulu, the Niah Caves, and Bako. Sarawak's cultural treasures are also fascinating, reflecting the influence not only of the state's many ethnic peoples, but also the odd western influence of Sarawak's "White Rajahs."

The capital of Sarawak is Kuching. Malaysia Airlines flies regularly to Kuching International Airport as well as to Miri from Kuala Lumpur, Johor Bahru, Singapore, and Kota Kinabalu. Boats are a common mode of transport in Sarawak, as its the dense vegetation of its interior is crisscrossed with rivers. Travel in areas not reachable by boat is often by light aircrafts and helicopters. Major towns are serviced by buses.

Its capital city, Kuching, one of the most charming towns in Malaysia is simply unique offering such a romantic and unlikely history. Kuching’s residents is approximately 450,000. Perfectly preserved colonial buildings blend elegantly with the gracious modern architecture adorned with beautiful landscape.

For such a vast state, Sarawak’s population of about 2 million is a surprising sparse yet fascinating and diverse mix of almost thirty ethnic groups. The population is mainly composed of the Iban tribe (who forms one-third of the population) with a mix of Chinese and Malays while the Bidayuh, Melanau and the Orang Ulu comprise a minority of the population. Sarawak is a society composed of traditions and customs that is both hundreds of years old and as new as the microchips in a personal computer.

Reflecting the wide mixture of ethnic groups in Sarawak, religion in the state is both tolerant and diverse. Islam is the official religion. However, Christianity, Buddhism, Hinduism and animism are also represented and respected.

Although Bahasa Melayu is the official language, English is by far very widely spoken over the state.
