古晋Jalan Astana一段摩托车翘头影片在Facebook流传后，一名17岁骑士被捕，案件目前仍在调查。 影片拍到一辆摩托车朝Abang Kipali Roundabout方向行驶。交通警方追查车主后，涉事少年于8月27日到警局协助调查，随后被捕。 警方援引1987年陆路交通法令第42（1）条文调查这起涉嫌鲁莽及危险驾驶案件。截至通报时，当局未宣布提控，也没有法庭裁决。 警方提醒，公共道路上的特技动作可能造成重伤或死亡，也可能面对法律行动；家长和监护人受促多留意青少年的摩托车使用情况。

Police have arrested a 17-year-old over a video that appeared to show a motorcyclist performing a wheelie on Jalan Astana in Kuching. The footage, filmed in the direction of the Abang Kipali Roundabout, circulated on Facebook. Traffic police said they traced the motorcycle owner before the teenager came to the station on Aug 27 to assist with the investigation and was arrested. The case is being investigated under Section 42(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987 for alleged reckless and dangerous driving. It remains at the investigation stage; police had not announced a charge or court outcome. Police warned that stunts on public roads can cause serious injury or death and may lead to legal action. Parents and guardians were also urged to pay attention to teenagers’ motorcycle use.

美里国会议员办公室称，Batik Air已同意恢复美里—吉隆坡直飞服务，但启航日期和班表仍未公布。 这项进展源自当地要求航空公司重新评估航线的诉求。美里居民此前反映，周末、公共假期和旅游旺季较难买到机票，座位紧张时票价也会随之上升。 若航线落实，美里和砂拉越北部乘客将多一个选择，也可能吸引部分汶莱旅客从美里转飞吉隆坡。不过，在Batik Air正式公布班次并开放售票前，这仍不是已经投入营运的航班。 近期有出行安排者，应以订票系统内现有航班为准。复航的确切日期、每周班次和起降时间，有待航空公司下一步确认。

Batik Air has agreed to resume Miri–Kuala Lumpur services, according to the Miri MP’s office, but no start date, frequency or timetable has been released. The announcement followed an appeal for the airline to reassess the route after residents reported difficulty finding seats, especially on weekends, public holidays and other peak periods. Until Batik Air publishes a schedule or opens the flights for sale, passengers should not treat the route as already operating. A return would add capacity on a corridor used by Miri and northern Sarawak residents, as well as some travellers from Brunei. It could also give passengers another option when seats are tight. For now, existing travel plans should be based on flights that are actually available in the booking system. The next firm update must come with the airline’s launch date and operating schedule.

古晋北市市政厅（DBKU）在悉尼举行的全球大会上，获颁“Healthy City Expert”肯定。 DBKU把这项肯定归功于社区共融工作，包括让居民参与地方发展的Kejiranan Mesra睦邻计划。北市市政厅官网目前列有2025至2026年度的54个Kejiranan Mesra社区，显示这套计划在古晋北市的覆盖范围。 颁发仪式配合Alliance for Healthy Cities第11届全球大会举行，大会日期为9月1日至3日。DBKU表示，其社区路线以包容、安全、可持续和宜居为发展方向。 这次公布的是城市治理方面的肯定，并没有同时宣布新拨款、新设施或公共服务调整。若社区计划扩大或设下新目标，仍需等待北市市政厅另行通知。

Kuching North City Hall (DBKU) has received the Alliance for Healthy Cities’ “Healthy City Expert” recognition at its global conference in Sydney. The recognition was presented during the alliance’s 11th Global Conference, held from Sept 1 to 3. DBKU linked it to its community-inclusion work, particularly Kejiranan Mesra and programmes that involve residents in neighbourhood development. DBKU’s own directory lists 54 Kejiranan Mesra areas for 2025–2026, showing the local network behind the submission. The city hall says the approach is intended to make Kuching North more inclusive, safe, sustainable and liveable. No new funding, facility or change to public services was announced with the recognition. Any expansion of the neighbourhood programmes or new targets will require a separate DBKU update.

砂拉越15所哨点医疗机构的监测显示，雾霾期间上呼吸道感染病例轻微上升；全州哮喘病例暂未出现持续激增。 今年1月至8月底，这些医疗机构共记录约69万4800次求诊，其中包括6万4688宗上呼吸道感染和6156宗哮喘病例。结膜炎每周平均病例也从17宗增至21宗。 上呼吸道感染近期每周平均约1752宗，高于今年初的约1717宗。较明显的增幅出现在8月中旬，当时南区约有1250宗，中区超过1000宗，北区接近400宗。砂拉越中央医院急诊与创伤部在8月数日也接获较多哮喘病人，不过整体监测未发现哮喘病例持续大幅上升。 砂拉越卫生局将继续追踪相关疾病，并维持药物、器材和医护人手供应。烟霾严重时，应减少户外剧烈活动；若必须外出，可戴上合适口罩。持续咳嗽、呼吸困难或眼睛疼痛者，应尽快到医疗机构求诊。

A small rise in respiratory infections is showing up in Sarawak’s haze surveillance, while asthma numbers remain broadly stable statewide. Fifteen sentinel health facilities averaged about 1,752 upper respiratory tract infection (URTI) cases a week in recent weeks, compared with roughly 1,717 at the start of the year. The clearest spike came in mid-August: the Southern Zone recorded about 1,250 cases, the Central Zone more than 1,000 and the Northern Zone nearly 400. Between January and the end of August, the same facilities logged 64,688 URTI cases and 6,156 asthma cases from about 694,800 patient visits. Weekly conjunctivitis cases also rose from an average of 17 to 21. Sarawak General Hospital saw more asthma patients on several days in August, but the wider monitoring has not found a sustained statewide surge. The Sarawak Health Department is continuing surveillance and keeping medicines, equipment and staff ready. During smoky periods, residents should limit strenuous outdoor activity, wear a suitable mask when they need to go out, and seek treatment for breathing difficulty, a persistent cough or eye pain.

UNIMAS从2026年9月学期起逐步推行混合教学，但并非全校课程一律改上网课。 各学院和中心会在开学前，分别通知学生上课方式、出席要求、课表及课程指南。不同课程的线上与到校安排会有差别，学生应以所属学院发出的资料为准。 符合条件的本科与研究生课程，可把讲课和适合线上进行的活动搬到互动平台；实验、实习、工作坊、实地活动及合作项目，只要课程有需要，仍会留在校园进行。 住在古晋或三马拉汉、需要安排通勤和住宿的学生，不宜先假设整周都能线上上课。截至校方这次宣布时，各课程的具体课表仍未公开。

UNIMAS students should not assume the September semester will be fully online: only eligible programmes will move progressively into flexible hybrid teaching. Lectures and other suitable activities may be held through interactive online platforms, while laboratories, practical work, workshops, field activities and collaborative projects will remain on campus when a programme requires them. The arrangement covers eligible undergraduate and postgraduate programmes. The university said each faculty and centre will issue its own teaching format, attendance rules, timetable and programme guidance before the semester starts. The online and campus mix will therefore differ by course rather than follow one university-wide schedule. Students commuting from Kuching or Samarahan, or making accommodation plans, should use the timetable from their own faculty before changing arrangements. No programme-by-programme schedule had been published in the announcement.

砂拉越刑事调查部9月1日完成负责人交接，打击有组织罪案、帮派活动及严重无牌放贷案，成为新任主任的执法重点。 砂警总监 Mohamad Zainal Abdullah 在古晋的交接仪式后说，新任主任 Kumarasan Muniandy 已接掌砂拉越刑事调查部，负责推动更强硬的执法和预防行动。 警方目前正留意数个涉嫌贩毒的集团，但没有公布其身份或数量。Mohamad Zainal Abdullah 表示，只有调查取得足够证据，证明案件具备有组织罪案元素后，警方才会考虑援引《2012年国家安全罪行（特别措施）法令》（SOSMA）。 警方过去曾以SOSMA处理一宗有组织罪案，该案仍在等候审讯。截至9月1日，这次交接没有带来新的逮捕、提控或已定罪名单。

Sarawak’s new CID chief has been told to make organised crime and gang activity a priority, but police did not announce any new arrest, charge or named target on Sept 1. Sarawak Police Commissioner Datuk Mohamad Zainal Abdullah set out the brief during a handover ceremony in Kuching, where SAC Kumarasan Muniandy took charge of the state Criminal Investigation Department. The remit includes serious offences linked to unlicensed money-lending syndicates. Mohamad Zainal said several suspected drug-trafficking groups remain under police watch. He did not identify the groups or say how many were involved, and said action under the Security Offences (Special Measures) Act 2012 would only be considered if investigators found enough evidence of organised crime. Police have previously used SOSMA in one organised-crime case that is still awaiting trial. No outcome has been decided in that case, while any action against the groups now under watch remains subject to investigation and the legal process.

古晋的早晨，沿着 Jalan Arang 经过时，刚炸好的香蕉香气足以让人放慢脚步。Arang Road Cucur Pisang 是 Lau 家族经营的路边小摊，为邻里、上班族和路过的驾车者准备热腾腾的炸物与传统糕点。 [image: 1788253348015-p2.jpeg] 图片来源：DayakDaily 招牌香蕉炸物外脆金黄，每天通常会准备四五种选择，包括咖喱角、蔬菜炸物和萝卜糕炸物。我会尽量早到，而不是把它排成下午最后一站：热门款式可能在收档前就卖完，虽然摊位营业至下午 3 时。 [image: 1788253348178-p3.jpeg] 图片来源：DayakDaily 这个摊位已经售卖自制炸物和本地糕点六年。家人每天新鲜准备食材，轮流负责油炸和招呼客人，让这个小摊保持很自然的家庭节奏。若想为古晋早餐加一道小吃，或买一袋和咖啡一起分享，香蕉炸物会是最直接的第一选择。 [image: 1788253348316-p4.jpeg] 图片来源：DayakDaily Arang Road Cucur Pisang 位于古晋 Jalan Arang 沿路。营业时间是每天早上 7 时至下午 3 时，星期日休息；如需预订，可拨打 014-718 7273。 打开 Google Maps 如果是我安排路线，会把它放进 Jalan Arang 的早晨行程，在炸物还热的时候买一袋综合口味。它的吸引力很简单：新鲜现炸、熟悉的糕点，以及一家拥有邻里熟客支持的家庭小摊。

On a Kuching morning, the smell of freshly fried banana fritters is a good reason to slow down along Jalan Arang. Arang Road Cucur Pisang is a family roadside stall where the Lau family turns out hot snacks and traditional kuih for neighbours, office workers and passing motorists. [image: 1788253348015-p2.jpeg] Source: DayakDaily The signature banana fritters are crisp and golden, and the daily selection usually includes four or five varieties such as curry puffs, vegetable fritters and carrot cake fritters. I would come early rather than treat this as a late-afternoon snack stop: popular items can sell out before closing, even though the stall operates until 3:00pm. [image: 1788253348178-p3.jpeg] Source: DayakDaily The stall has been serving homemade fritters and local pastries for six years. The family prepares ingredients fresh each day and takes turns frying and serving, giving this small stop a distinctly homemade rhythm. For a simple Kuching breakfast add-on or a paper bag to share with coffee, the banana fritters are the natural first order. [image: 1788253348316-p4.jpeg] Source: DayakDaily Arang Road Cucur Pisang is along Jalan Arang, Kuching. It opens daily from 7:00am to 3:00pm except Sunday; advance orders can be made at 014-718 7273. Open in Google Maps I would fold this into a Jalan Arang morning route and buy a mixed bag while the fritters are still hot. The appeal is uncomplicated: fresh frying, familiar kuih and a family stall with a loyal neighbourhood following.

下雨的古晋下午，我会把 Sarawak Science Centre（SSCiEX）排进 Petra Jaya 路线。这里不是拍完外墙就走，而是让孩子动手、提问，也让大人看看好奇心能否离开课本。 [image: 1788248147471-02-resized.webp] 来源：SSCiEX 官方网站 SSCiEX 的出现，和砂拉越把 STEM 教育、创新与未来产业放进公共生活有关。它在 2026 年 7 月 29 日正式开放，7 月 30 日迎接公众，把多年规划变成学习空间；它是刚建立参观节奏的新机构，不是百年老馆。 [image: 1788248148842-03-resized.webp] 来源：SSCiEX 官方网站 重点是动手试、观察结果、再问问题。我会预留一小时半至两小时半，遇到活动再多留时间。家庭、学生和喜欢研究机器的成年人适合；只想找安静古迹或十分钟打卡的人可能觉得太专门。 [image: 1788248150141-04-resized.webp] 来源：SSCiEX 官方网站 从市中心到 Petra Jaya，开车或叫车较方便，不适合当老城步行点。出发前确认开放时间、票务、活动和最后入场；新场馆安排可能调整，活动或维修也会影响动线。Jalan Stadium 周末较忙，停车要留缓冲。 [image: 1788248151102-05-resized.webp] 来源：SSCiEX 官方网站

On a rainy Kuching afternoon, I would put Sarawak Science Centre (SSCiEX) on the Petra Jaya route—not as a monument to photograph, but as a place to test whether curiosity survives beyond a selfie. [image: 1788248147471-02-resized.webp] Source: SSCiEX official website SSCiEX exists because Sarawak wants STEM, innovation and future skills in public life. It opened to the public on 30 July 2026 after its official opening the day before, turning years of planning into an operating learning venue. This is a new institution still finding its rhythm, not a settled century-old museum. [image: 1788248148842-03-resized.webp] Source: SSCiEX official website The point is to touch, test and ask. Allow 1.5–2.5 hours, more if a programme is running. Families, school-age visitors and curious adults will find a reason to stay; visitors seeking quiet heritage rooms or a ten-minute landmark may not. [image: 1788248150141-04-resized.webp] Source: SSCiEX official website Drive or arrange e-hailing from central Kuching; this is not an old-town walking stop. Confirm current hours, tickets, programmes and last admission before leaving: a new venue may adjust operations, while events or maintenance can change access. Leave a traffic buffer around Jalan Stadium. [image: 1788248151102-05-resized.webp] Source: SSCiEX official website

凌晨、周末或公共假期遇到供水问题，现在可拨1-300-88-2020联系Sarawak Water。 这项统一客服热线从9月1日起投入服务，每天24小时接听，为全砂住户和商家提供办公时间以外的联络渠道。 Sarawak Water目前只确认热线用于客户协助，尚未列出完整受理项目和处理时限。打电话时可先准备户口编号或住址，并清楚说明问题类型和发生地点，方便工作人员查找及转交个案。

From Sept 1, Sarawak Water customers can reach a 24-hour call centre at 1-300-88-2020, including on weekends and public holidays. The new line gives households and businesses one central number for customer assistance instead of limiting contact to normal office hours. Sarawak Water has not yet published a full list of the cases handled by the centre or a response-time target. When reporting a supply or premises issue, callers should give the exact location and keep an account or premises reference available if they have one. This helps the operator identify the case and route it without relying on a separate departmental number.
