KUCHING, Jan 25: The rehabilitation project of the old Ang Cheng Ho quarry, initiated by Sarawak Premier Datuk Patinggi Tan Sri Abang Johari Tun Openg in early 2020, is now nearing completion of its first phase.

According to Sarawak Deputy Premier Datuk Amar Dr Sim Kui Hian, a multi-purpose hall is now located on a 20-acre lake with a depth of approximately 150 metres.

“With the completion of phase one, we are planning for phase two and phase three.


“I’m looking forward to the experienced operators for resort development to come and join us so that Batu Kawah eventually will be a place for working, for relaxing, and also for the tourists to come.
