    CEan Ash should post more photographs of this place. I totally missed visiting it during my trip to Malaysia.

    By the way, how is the bridge supported? Looks quite an amazing bridge design though 😀

    Wow. That would be great to see some more pictures of the bridge.
    Next time don't miss it. 😁

    I was quite amazed to see the bridge, what a beautiful way to construct a passage for people living in the nearby place there.

    It is being supported by the cables...maybe pre-stressed to take that amount of load. 😀

    I'll look into it and see what i can contribute to the discussion here 😀
