The Old Towns That You Never Seen It Before

Recently, I found a "Seria BRUNEI" group in facebook. What's interested me, it's the old pictures about Seria KB town and these really make me excited seeing those old pictures collection has finally expose to the public.



As the photo show us the lion dance surrounding by crowded people as you hardly see this situation in Seria KB towns nowadays.





Let me tell you guys some history about Seria KB town, according to my dad around year 70s, the population of Seria KB were at least three times more than present year. Is that true? but now why Seria KB people have always called as Ghost Town. Do they know about the past? However the young people nowadays; they never know Seria KB town had their good time and rich economics in the 70ies. Correct me, if i am wrong but you can ask your parents about it.



Roxana cinema located beside Seria Gurka Camp.


Cinema was one of the popular entertainment at that time and very good in business too. When came to around year 80s people started to migrate out of Brunei and most of them migrate to Canada. Shenton ever told me, if I still remember he said, most of them lived in Edmonton, is that true?? If it’s true, then you may call “Edmonton” a new Seria KB town in Canada because most of them are from Seria KB.



If one day I become a movie director, I will make a movie story base on the 70s in Seria KB town.





Find a website which content a lot of an old pictures of Seria KB town http://photo.appsmiths.com/album15

It’s made me, really want to bring it back the time and see how it was look likes. I have see the people in the facebook of "Seria BRUNEI" group keep on commenting the old Seria KB town pictures and now that I had realized a lot of Seria KB people who migrate outside the country or working at oversea missed their hometown so much, especially for those people in their 30ies and 40ies years old. Anyway who don’t right? For those young people like me and teenagers don’t know much about the past of Seria KB town were like. I am curious about it, don’t you curious about this too?

Emmm, I got some idea here. Why not making a documentary about “Seria KB town”, does it sound interesting? Well, I kind of like these idea but I need someone to back me up. Maybe not someone, it’s a group of people to back me this project.


All pictures taken from the Facebook group "Seria BRUNEI".
