Sibu Colours - Green Drains!

by FH2o on June 18, 2006

I sported the following colourful things in Sibu during my two days visit there – teh tarik muddy river (due to heavy logging), red sky (from the bush fires) and almost all over Sibu, green drains!

Apparently a lot of the drains do not connect to anywhere and they do not ‘drain’ as drains are supposed to do! As such most of the drains were stagnant and as a consequence a thick layer of green algae growth has resulted. Though colourful and ‘green’, I still find it disconcerting. Don’t you?

HAHAHAHA!! Was in Sibu from Thursday till Saturday and the only good side of it is the relatively cheap yet delicious food, apart from that, the atmosphere is as humid as ever and those slime in the drain reminds me more of electoplasm from some ghost buster movie hahahahaha

A haven for mosquito-breeding? I wonder what’s the rate of dengue fever there.
