Fort Magerita

This is a test post. I just want to see if the image turns out OK. So what else can I write in here? This picture was taken during a trip to Kuching, Sarawak in July of 2005. It was actually a business trip.

If you wonder where Kuching is, go here and see the map of Malaysia. Kuching is located in Sarawak, on the island of Borneo. It is often referred to as East Malaysia, whereas the mainland (Peninsula Malaysia) is usually called West Malaysia.

Sarawak actually joined Malaysia in 1963, whereas Malaya got its independence from Britain in 1957. Malaysia is made up of 13 states and 1 Federal Territory. The Federal Territories are located in 3 geographical locations, i.e Kuala Lumpur, Putra Jaya and Labuan. There is news that another location is to be sequested to the Federal government. How this will come about is yet to be seen. Many believe that Langkawi is that place.
