Lawas 2018

In conjunction with 14^th General Election, Malaysia New Government announced that 10^th and 11^th were special public holiday. In 11^th until 13^th May, I went to Lawas for a 3 days 2 nights short trip.

Lawas is a small place in Sarawak. As it is easy to walk around in town so I printed a map from Google Map to prevent get lost.

The ferry is quite old as some of the seat torn out and been stick with big cellotape. The air-conditional also not so cold and quite hot if follow the afternoon session. You can bring your own small fan if you scared very hot.

When reach Lawas, need to fill in Arrival Form that can get at Immigration Counter. After the form chopped, you will get the copy of the form and need to return when back so put it safety. When back the Immigration Counter quite late to open (ferry departure on 8am and the counter open on 7.50am).

In Terminal Ferry Lawas, it has some food stalls. The time I back, just one stall open. It sells laksa, kolo noodle (RM3.50) and Red Rice Wine Mee Suah (RM6). You need to add for wine that you want as the Mee Suah is plain and on the table has a reuse tomato bottle of wine.

The Ferry to or from Lawas just a trip per day. In Labuan, you can buy ferry ticket at Terminal counter while in Lawas just can buy the ticket at the same day before departure or you can direct book from boss of the ferry. In Lawas did not has ticket counter but you can see in front of Immigration Counter has a people sell ticket with temporary table and chair.
