About <b>Kuching</b> City Center - lot10 Boutique <b>Hotel</b> Posted: 04 May 2015 02:55 PM PDT To have a memorable trip when travel in Kuching, Sarawak, first things is to know about this Kuching city center. Well,to find Kuching city center hotel is easy but to find a best place for you to convenient need to do some research. lot 1o boutique hotel can provide you. Lets talk about Kuching city center. Kuching is very attractive. Most tourists go to Sarawak just to explore Kuching. It has many tourist attractions offered to locals as well as visitors. If you want to get up close and understand more about the multi cultures in Kuching, the best thing to do is to go visit the temples and mosques around the city. One of the famous temples in Kuching is the Tua Pek Kong Temple. This temple is the oldest Chinese temple in Kuching and is easily access almost anywhere in Kuching. After a visit to the Chinese temple, you can go to visit the Muslims mosque. There are two main mosques in Kuching, namely the Kuching City mosque and Masjid Jamek. Both mosques are packed with devotees performing prayers expecially on Fridays. Kuching, the capital of Sarawak, is simply unique. No other city in Malaysia has such a romantic and unlikely history, nor displays its charms with such an easy grace. The residents of Kuching (pop. 650,000 approx.) enjoy living here, and take great pride in their fascinating city, which is reflected in their attitude to visitors. Kuching welcomes visitors warmly, but it does not put on an act for them. Instead it goes about its own business in a relaxed manner that hasn't changed in 160 years. It is impossible to really enjoy Kuching from the air conditioned comfort of a tour bus. To make the most of your visit you must put on your walking shoes, take to the streets (and the water), and join in. Like all towns and cities in Borneo, the focal point of Kuching and the reason for its existence is the river. Hiring a sampan to meander slowly up and down the Sarawak River is the best way to get your first impression of Kuching. From the river you will see picturesque Malay villages (kampungs), a golden-domed mosque, a Victorian fort, a whole street of 19th century Chinese shophouses and an imposing wooden-roofed palace, all set against a background of distant mountains. Kuching's city center is well preserved and very compact; virtually everything that is worth seeing can be reached on foot or by sampan. The narrow, bustling streets are crammed with shops selling all manner of goods, from the mundane to the exotic. There are ornate Chinese temples, many fine examples of colonial-style architecture, a beautiful waterfront and a number of interesting museums, including the historic Sarawak Museum. There is an excellent range of accommodation, from luxury via boutique to budget, good restaurants, and nightlife to suit most tastes and pockets. You can try local delicacies such as deer meat and jungle fern, drink a glass or two of tuak (local rice wine), or feast on a vast array of seafood dishes Kuching has an unusual name – the word means "cat" in Malay. There are a number of stories as to how this name came about, but it is unlikely that it has anything to do with cats. The two more likely explanations are that it derives from the Chinese word kochin, meaning "harbour," or that it is named after the mata kuching or "cat's eye" fruit, a close relative of the lychee that grows widely here. Sarawak is a unique and enjoyable tourism destination, and Kuching is the ideal base from which to go exploring. The nearby national parks include the famous Bako, home of the rare proboscis monkey, Gunung Gading, where giant rafflesia flowers bloom, Kuching Wetlands, which protects a fascinating mangrove ecosystem, Kubah, with its rare palms and orchids, and Semenggoh and Matang Wildlife Centres with their resident orangutans. Literally hundreds of Iban and Bidayuh longhouses are within easy travelling distance. Damai, on the nearby Santubong Peninsula is Sarawak's main resort area, and many travel agents offer "two-centre" packages allowing you to explore Kuching, go on a longhouse trip, visit Bako and the rainforest and then relax on the beach after the rigours of jungle trekking. Kuching is also the ideal base for visiting longhouses. Local travel agents have a variety of tours, ranging from half-day trips to nearby Bidayuh longhouses, to week long safaris to Iban longhouses on the Skrang, Lemanak and Batang Ai river systems.

MIDF Research neutral on Sime Darby <b>hotel</b> move – BorneoPost <b>...</b> Posted: 07 Dec 2015 03:25 PM PST KUCHING: MIDF Amanah Investment Bank Bhd (MIDF Research) is neutral on Sime Darby Bhd (Sime Darby) attempting to dispose Hotel Equatorial Melaka for an estimated RM180 million. Reports state that Sime Darby's property division Acting Managing Director Datuk Jauhari Hamidi saying that "Sime Darby Property is open to business opportunities, including divestments that capture the desired value of its portfolio. "However, to date, we have not officially concluded any transaction on Hotel Equatorial Melaka." To note, Hotel Equatorial Melaka is a 5-star 22-storey international business hotel located at Bandar Hilir, Melaka. Sime Darby acquired the asset in 1998 and the hotel is now 17 years old. As of end of financial year 2015 (FY15), the hotel net book value is RM81.4 million. MIDF Research gathered that Sime Darby has an effective stake of 55 per cent in Equatorial Melaka. "We are neutral at this juncture pending the materialization of the deal. Impact on Sime Darby's balance sheet is also minimal even if the deal materialised. "Assuming the RM180 million price mentioned in the news, Sime Darby's net gearing should be reduced to 0.50 times ,from 0.51 per cent as of end September 2015. "As the news has yet to materialise, we maintain our FY16 and FY17 core net income at RM2.14 billion and RM2.22 billion respectively. Our target price of RM8.20 is based on Sum-Of-Parts valuation. We expect the news to have minimal impact on Sime Darby's share price. "Excluding the news, weak earnings from industrial division should keep Sime Darby's share price upside limited. However, the downside is limited as well due to decent dividend yield of 2.9 per cent and the near term dividend of 19 sen." |
