Big Byte Into Hi-Tech
1 - 7 Sept 2025. Issue 53.
Another week, another roadmap. Sarawak is charting its path to high-income industrialisation with growing clarity—and the same principle now applies to visitors at Bako National Park, where compulsory guided tours are being introduced to ensure a smoother experience.
On the subject of tourism, as Malaysia gears up for Visit Malaysia Year 2026, this week’s infographic reviews the 2024 numbers. Tourism is already a major contributor to Sarawak’s economy, but the figures suggest there’s still room for improvement.
Finally, this week’s op-ed explores placemaking as a strategy to turn Sarawak into a place where more of us—young and old, local and foreign—can truly find our place in the sun.
