Back then ,(early 2000's) kuala BaramTown is a happening place,ecspecially on the weekend.Lot of Indonesian ,which work nearby Factories come loafing here as this small town is the nearest place to have some shops compare if they goto Mirior Lutong which cost more money and time for transportation.
The Bruneian also flock to Miri almost every weekend and on this time it will be 3 or 4 times busy than the other days.The Boat Express Wharp to Ulu Baram also located here,the destination is to Marudi,Long lama,Mulu and other small places.
