Kuching in Cheongsam 2011

Happy Chinese New Year in Kuching

Kuching cat statue greeting public in cheongsam to celebrate the coming Chinese new Year. “Meow Meow” may this year brings more awesome cash and abundance of love and good health. Gong Xi Fa Cai!

In China the main attraction for tourist would be visiting the statue of the modern father Dr. Sun Yat-Sen. I know you’re familiar with Statue of Liberty in NYC but In Kuching we have cat statue.


Kucing in Malay means Cat. The local Melayu Sarawak call it Pusak.

We have 3 (almost) identical cats statue in Kuching but the one shown here is special – This cat get a cloth change in every festival.

Where to See 1 of the 3 Kucing Statue?

  1. Meow Meow Gong Xi will be very popular in Vietnam as somehow the rabbit could be sleeping on his way and the cat took over instead of the tortoise. Happy Chinese New Meow Year.
