Kampung boyan view in 1999

 This is a common sight on the coast of Kampung Boyan, around 1999. At that time, houses were found on the edge of the river. Only a few years later, the houses on the edge of the river from Kampung Boyan, Kampung Gersik, Kampung Sourabaya Hulu and Hilir were moved to the Rampangi area, Demak and Selang.

The view across the river can be seen completely from the Holiday Inn Hotel (now Grand Magherita) Now, the house area here is all empty and some area were only filled with food stalls from local residents.
