Dalat River Kampungs

As in Mukah, most of the local residents in Dalat live in the nearby kampungs. In Dalat, as I discovered, most of the kampungs are built along the rivers. The river provide the main means of transport, and is also the water source and sewer. As you will see later, it is also the public swimming pool.

Houses here are linked through a network of wooden plank walks.

Boats are like cars for the residents here. Every house has one, or three. 

This is a floating toilet. Conveniently everything goes into the river. But this is also their water source !

The local kids here love to have their photos taken.

Having fun in the river. These kids were quite happy to mug for my camera.
