Trip to Sibu and Kapit

This is the first time to Sibu. After knowing that Kapit gonna have the first Lord's table meeting, brother WSW and I decided to witness the meeting. We managed to grab reasonable air-ticket to Sibu. Sibu a small inland town located at the confluence of the Rejang and Igan Rivers, a peaceful and quiet place to relax myself. A place that is free from pressure, strenuous, hectic city life.

We started our journey early in the morning at 5am rushing ourselves to the airport not to miss the 6.55am flight. We were just snoring the two hours journey to the destination.

Upon reaching Sibu, we get to meet our dear brother CHK who served us throughout the whole journey.. He brought us to many places and trying out different kind of stuff.. We just eat and eat...

In the evening, our dear bro drove us all the way to Bintangor about 45 minutes from Sibu. Bintangor a small town with only few rows of shops.

Then of course, we cannot miss out the famous Rojak in Bintangor.

We woke up very early the next day to catch the 6.15am express boat ride 150km up the Rejang river (longest river in Malaysia) to Kapit. The river is lined with small villages with traditional long-houses and thick virgin rainforest.

It took us about 3 hours to reach the destination. Kapit is a small logging town on the banks of the river. However, it is much bigger than what I expected. There are no roads in or out of the town, but there are roads around town and quite a number of cars about.

The location of the meeting hall.

Some brothers welcoming the saints from other localities.

The place that we had the first Lord's table meeting, the Dewan Suarah, Kapit.

Praise the Lord for His testimony here in Kapit. Glory be to Him!!

Before the meeting really ends, we rush to catch our return express boat. We managed to take some quick photos around :-)

Thanks to our brother who spent time from his busy schedules bringing us around. See, he is real busy.. lol..
