This recreational site is specially built to commemorate the friendship between Malaysia and China.
Written there on the Friendship Globe ~
Thousands of Miles Apart and Friendship is all it takes to Bridge the Distance.
There's a huge Cheng Ho statue inside the Recreational Park. Since the site is still under construction, hence can see the signboard "Cat Basah" near the statue :)Behind the Cheng Ho statue is a huge lake with a Chinese mansion at the other end of the lake.
This is a unique and nice bench (each end of the bench is hold by one animal.. Panda (symbolise China I presume) at one end and Orang Utan (symbolise Sarawak, I presume can't use hornbill cos hornbill is not so strong to hold the bench :P).
Cats, cats.... Yeah, cats again!! Kuching is Cat City, right? :) Like what I have written earlier on, one can find lotsa cats (statues) in Kuching. And there's two funny looking cats statue in the recreational park as well.. The cats are hugging each other.
Yeah... Hornbill !!! The artistic hornbill.... For those who don't know or unaware of, Sarawak is also known as the Land of Hornbills :) And for those people who wanted me to bring back hornbills to them, mmmmm..... there's no way I can get hold of an alive hornbill to bring back with me. So, this is what I bring back with me :)
I'm sure this will be a nice and comfy recreational park when the construction is complete. I will surely visit that place again in the future when I go back to Kuching next time.

I wonder why, but seeing this pics gives me a feeling of being in Putrajaya.
day dreamer,
Putra Jaya? Mmmm... How come?
Putrajaya looks totally different leh..

The site used to be my playground when I was staying at Lorong Song 1A2A. Nice piece of art except for the ugly font used for the "Taman Sahabat" wordings. The City Hall having a bad taste on font used on their sign board and billbords.
Heee... I'm going to see the hugging cats next time I go back. ;)
uchu keling
childhood playground? nice memory huh? :)
Now that area is one of the hot spot in Kuching..
Lotsa foodcourts nearby..
regarding the font used for the wordings, still acceptable lah :D

Looks like you will be having a very nice park to visit. Really like the panda bench.
Nope. Only will be back for good in April. Are you gonna be in Kuching that time? ^_^ Let's go out makan together with mum-mum.

What's up doc, Good thing this park is not anywhere near my house, it looks tacky.

Too bad I can't join you and the others in your 2006 New Year countdown celebration

Kuching should be called the City of Ugly Cat Statues!They are everywhere and each and everyone is without exception SO UGLY!! ;o)
fh20,
There are nice Cat statues as well, right? ;)
Nice pics!
fH2O.. ok lah, as long as they get a new fresh coat of paint every now and then..
I have seen more ugly ones...
Robin,
Thanks :)
Know what?
Glad that I don't have to look at the torturously intertwined cats everyday ... I used to live in the semi-det house right behind the cat! The house with the timber deck extension. Moved out about a couple of months ago.
No Kidding! ;o)
fH2O,
I think I know where u stay previously :D
U r glad u shifted out?
Btw, there's lotsa eating place nearby, very convenience...
but no doubt, the place is packed with people as well..
Haha, fH2o... I was just going to say that your house is now posted on this site!!!
haha, small world but big Kuching
