Newly Open Kuching Sentral

Kuching Sentral is now in operation to be transportation hub for regional bus companies in Kuching. The Kuching Sentral is located not far from Kuching International Airport and located along the Kuching-Serian trunk road. Ideally, all regional buses will make their stop at the Kuching Sentral to drop off and also to pick up passengers. However, as of now, not many bus companies are willing to use the Kuching Sentral facilities due to the ongoing disagreement in the terms of conditions of using the facilities.
