MY FAMILY went on a road trip to Sarikei for Chinese New Year this week, a journey we last made four years ago.

There was quite a lot of traffic on the Pan-Borneo trunk road when we set out on New Year’s Eve; with the number of vehicles travelling in both directions, including a few express buses, it’s really high time for it to be upgraded to a dual carriageway highway.
