Kuching International Airport ~ when night falls.




From an official figure released by the State's Tourism authority, from January to August 2008, Sarawak received 2,023,019 visitors, of which 1,450,928 were foreigners and 572,091 were from Peninsular Malaysia and Sabah.



砂拉越旅游当局的数据显示,2008年1月至8月期间,总共有 2,023,019 游客到访砂拉越,其中 1,450,928 为外国人,572,091 为西马半岛及沙巴州游客。

Below are the statistic of the foregin visitors visiting Sarawak for the same period :-

以下是该季度外国游客访砂拉越的详细数据:-

Brunei (汶莱) - 889,409
Indonesia (印度尼西亚) - 289,761
Philippines (菲律宾) - 62,696
China (中国) - 25,095
Singapore (新加坡) - 24,920
Continental Europe (欧洲大陆) - 24,206
United Kingdom (英国) - 23,402
Thailand (泰国) - 14,719
India (印度) - 14,443
Australia (澳洲) - 12,428






Among the foreign visitors, save for those from Brunei (where regular cross over border visit to the nearby city of Miri or the towns of Limbang and Lawas in Sarawak by car are a norm) and Indonesia (who are visiting from Kalimantan conveniently via land transports), the bulk of the rest of the foreign visitors who were visiting Sarawak, in particular Kuching, were using Kuching International Airport (KIA) as their main gateway.



无可否认的,绝大多数的外国游客 (以陆路方式进入砂拉越的汶莱和印度尼西亚游客除外)都是通过古晋国际机场抵达古晋的...





其实,古晋国际机场贵为“国际”机场在现阶段还是“名不符实”的,只因服务古晋国际机场的国际航空公司现在还寥寥无几,计只有马来西亚的 马航 (MAS) 亚航(AirAsia), 新加坡的 胜安航空(SilkAir) 虎航(TigerAirways * 20.11.2008启航)汶莱的 汶航(Royal Brunei Airlines) 以及 印度尼西亚的 巴达维亚航空(Batavia Air).



Kuching International Airport (KIA), being an "International" airport has still a long way to go to live up to its "International" airport status.



Currently, Sarawak and in particular Kuching is connected to the outside world by only a handful of airlines, namely MAS (Malaysia Airlines) , which is flying into the State from Kuala Lumpur, Johor, Kota Kinabalu and Singapore, AirAsia which is connecting Sarawak to Kuala Lumpur, Johor, Penang, Kota Kinabalu and Singapore, SilkAir flying from Singapore to Kuching, Royal Brunei Airlines which flies to Sarawak from Bandar Sri Begawan and Batavia Air flies from Pontianak, Indonesia.

The latest one is Tiger Air which will start flying directly from Singapore to Kuching and Miri on Nov 20, 2008.






Located 11 km south of Kuching, Kuching International Airport (KIA) is capable of handling 5 million passengers per annum and it is the third largest airport in Malaysia after Kuala Lumpur International Airport and Kota Kinabalu International Airport.



In the year 2007, KIA handled 3,236,468 passengers with a volume of 34,192 Aircraft movements.



One has to admit, Kuching International Airport is a marvel of modern architecture ...

无可否认的, 古晋国际机场是现代建筑学的结晶品 ...

Kuching International Airport in daylight ...






Like it or not, Kuching International Airport (KIA) is the first impression most foreign visitors (save for those who are using land transports all the way from Indonesian Kalimantan or the Sultanate State of Brunei) would have about Kuching the moment they have any physical contact with this city affectionately called the Cat City.






古晋国际机场是大多数外国游客踏足“猫城”古晋的主要门户。







Kuching (population : 635,000), located at the north-western tip of Borneo Island (743,330 km²), the 3rd largest island in the world after Greenland (2,166,086km²) and New Guinea (786,000km²), is the capital city of the East Malaysian State of Sarawak, also the largest state in Malaysia.






拥有 635,000 人口的古晋市,是马来西亚最大州砂拉越州的首府。位于婆罗洲岛的西北端。

婆罗洲岛 (743,330平方公里) 是世界第三大岛,名列格陵兰岛 (2,166,086平方公里) 和新几内亚岛 (786,000平方公里) 之后。




Borneo Island are divided by 3 countries, namely Malaysia (where its largest, namely Sarawak (area : 124,450 km², population : 2,500,000 (2007 estimate)) and the 2nd largest, namely Sabah (area : 76,115 km², population : 3,387,880 (2007 estimate)), states are located here), Indonesia (its Kalimantan territory (area : 537,000 km², population : 11,400,000 (1999 estimate))makes up 2/3 of Borneo Island) and the oil rich Sultanate State of Brunei (area : 5,765km², population : 381,371(July, 2008 estimate)).










婆罗洲岛由三个国家组成,即马来西亚(其最大的砂拉越州和第二大的沙巴州座落于此),印度尼西亚 (其加里曼丹部份占据了婆罗洲岛的2/3面积)以及产油国汶莱
