Tatao, Sarawak

Tatao (GPS: 2.87896, 112.85562) is a small town in Bintulu Division of Sarawak. It is located on the Pan Borneo Highway, and has a population of about 25,300 (as of year 2000). The people here are mostly from the Iban and Beketan Punan tribes.

Perhaps the only sight of interest here is the Sarawak Indigenous Tree Centre. It is located on the Bintulu - Tatau trunk road (which you can also call the Pan Borneo Highway). If you are coming from Bintulu, look out for it on the left side of the road. As I write this (Aug 2009), the centre is still under development. So if you find out any new development about this place, do drop me a mail to help me update the information.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
