MV Doulos


Attention boys and girls, ladies and gentlemen...Doulos will be coming to Pending Port, Kuching from 11 Dec 2008 - 2 January 2009. It is the World's Largest Floating Book Fair open every day with over 6,000 titles: educational, children's books, health, hobbies and more. Doulos is also the World's Oldest Ocean-going Passenger Ship, built in 1914, which means Doulos is 94 years old this year! During my school's year-end staff dinner, I heard from my colleague that this will be the last time Doulos comes to Kuching as it is already too old and after this, it will be transformed into a floating restaurant maybe? not sure though...but anyway, for those who've not visited Doulos before or for those who've visited Doulos and still wanna visit, this is your chance. Take this opportunity to visit Doulos and buy your favourite books. It's a great way to spend some quality time with your family and friends. Entrance is FREE! Children below 14 years old must be accompanied by an adult. See you all there! Below is the Book Fair opening hours...
