Great Fire of Sibu in 1928


 The captured scene shows the aftermath of the ‘Great Fire of Sibu’ in 1928. All features as seen on this photo are gone, except for the tree at the centre and the concrete block on the right. The raintree in front of Tua Pek Kong Temple is now the oldest tree in Sibu Central Business District. Tua Pek Kong Temple was also rebuilt.

Island road Sibu


 The Methodist wesley church with this new white tower addition to the original building. Behind it is the misionary Methodist Primary School. 

The Sentosa Inn signboard is illusive, it actually is in front of tower. Along this road, banks, clinics, timber companies, trading, news media and many old business establishment. At the end of road is the port and old hospital where the colonial administration stood. 

Town hall is now trying to rejuvenate this street, with an exhibition center to the left side and improvement to sidewalk in progress, as most visitors will not find this corner that popular yet.
