Tandang Sari

Tandang Sari was a seat of authority on the Saribas River in western Borneo. Local history associates it with Abdul Qadir, who established his capital on the riverbank. The Saribas opens into the South China Sea through a network of tidal channels, while its tributaries reach inland among forested hills. A local grave and the story of Dayang Isah Tandang Sari preserve memories of the place.
