Tourism Ambassador Of Sarawak

Let me introduce our tourism ambassador to you -- Nicholas Teo.

*Applause*

I found these 2 posters, the title of the posters: Sarawak ren jian le tu (Happy Land).
Poster 1


Poster 1 shows Kuching Waterfront along River Sarawak as background. Those boats are 'sampan'. The building behind is the 'Astana'. It was built during the Rajah Brookes time. But, I doubt it is open for visiting. As a local, I have never visited Astana before. Anyway, visitors can actually take the sampan to cross the river to the other side. Last time, it only costed 20 cents to cross the river.

The sampan ride at night is quite fun though. You can enjoy the scenery along the river at night. Once, I went there with my friends and took the sampan ride. We requested the sampan owner to turn off the engine and enjoyed the silent in the middle of the river. Some sampan owner even allow you to row the sampan. One of my friend tried and we were turning round and round on the river instead of moving forward. Another friend tried and we were moving backward. Oh..those old days..sweet memory. I did not try out, but I bet the sampan will remain still.

Waterfront is indeed a nice place with pretty scenery. After all, our government has spent alot of money in it. There are eating places, a children playground, an amphitheater, musical fountain, and tower for visitor to hav a good view of Kuching.

Oh ho! The AMPHITHEATER, I have my most embarassing moment there. When I was in Form 3, I represented my school to participate in the morale story telling (in mandarin) competition. That was my very first time participate in story telling competition. Due to the lack off experience, practice and stupid story that I chose, I...stopped halfway when telling the story. *sob sob* I was so nervous when it was my turn. When I was up on the stage, my brain was not functioning properly (HAHA). I forced it to remember all the WORDS in the story. Then I saw my teacher taking photo for me. DIE, all the words gone after the flash light!!! sob sob. I stood there not knowing what to do next: should I walked down or what? HAHA...I do not know how I managed to continue the story after like 1 minute's pause. Ah...I tell this in public? I cant believe myself! LOL

Poster 2

Poster 2 shows an Iban man standing next to Nicholas. Iban has the biggest popularity in Sarawak. Erm, I am a bit shi bai la, I do not understand their language. HAHA..

Photos taken when Nicholas Teo was singing.


His fans under the BIG SUN.


The flier distributed are fully used by some fans as small umbrella or fan.


This is a historical building in Kuching. It is a court before and now it is the Tourism Board.


Welcome to our Happy Land. Why we call it a Happy Land? Hmm You didn't notice Nicholas's SMILE?!! Happy Land grows Happy Man.

By the way, I like his new songs especially: PAPA MAMA
