BAU: The district has the potential to become a tourist attraction when Sarawak is ready to open its doors to foreigners, said Tourism, Arts and Culture Minister Datuk Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah.
He said the lifestyles of the Bidayuhs including their dances, traditional costumes and food could be promoted as products.
“That is why when the Pan Borneo Highway project reaches completion, the ministry will work on increasing Bau’s tourism products and facilities to meet the demands of the industry’s stakeholders,” he said after the Bau Bicentennial Celebration (BBC) 2020 held next to the Tasik Biru Lake here today.
Asked about the development plans for Bau, Abdul Karim said a museum and a gallery would be constructed in the district.
