Sarawak Regatta

An annual event, it is carried out at the Kuching Waterfront. Categories of races range from 7-paddlers to 30-paddlers rowing, kayaking and jetski. There were also a Craft Exhibition and some local Traditional Games being carried out during the regatta which was held from 1st August to 3rd August. This is my second trip to such an event, the first being I-don't-know-when. Here are some of the pictures taken.




There were thousands of people along Kuching Waterfront. One could hardly move around in that crowd.

Spectators of the Sarawak Regatta could be seen in as far off as the Ford Margherita, Jalan Astana.

Locally known as Bot Tambang (river taxi), they rested along the river enjoying the regatta too.
