Tatau is a small riverside town about 60km from Bintulu in Sarawak
and we went there because Hj Nasir wanted to see the river
after he booked his flight ticket home for a short rest,
so off we go to this place where timber related activities are the main source of employment besides agriculture.
The bridge across Tatau river.
