Workation in Miri: the essentials

Royal Dutch Shell drilled the first well here in 1910, and Miri has been an oil town ever since. Now the second-largest city in Sarawak with about 357,000 people, it lies on the north coast of Borneo close to the Brunei border. During the Second World War it was the first place on Borneo where Japanese troops landed. Modern malls, hospitals and condos make it comfortable, and there is coworking if you want a desk, but it feels like a working town and has little old architecture. Lambir Hills and the Niah caves are nearby, and flights go on to Mulu from the airport about 8 km from the centre.
