In search of the “White Rajahs” of Sarawak

Visiting the graves of the Brooke family, the former British rulers of Sarawak from 1841 to 1946.
You need to stay in hospital for live feeler 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
The sea can get very rough!!
Very true. Used to sail to Bilbao regularly from Portsmouth and the weather was a lottery. You never knew what the sea state was going to be like😢
May I suggest that you make portrait content of all Brooke family members, we here already know two of Rajah Brooke's descendants who came to Sarawak a few years ago, Lady Slyvia Brooke's granddaughter Lady Roberta Simpson and Jason Brooke. So far it's just the two of them only the ones we know here. I hope to get to know their other families as well from your next content.
After the change in visa rules for Sarawak, I'm afraid I have moved on to the extent that I have to plan whether we will stay in the UK or move somewhere else like Northern Spain. My wife and daughter met Jason Brooke by chance in Kuching which was great for them and they managed to get a nice photo with him. I doubt whether I will be able to get any other photos etc of remaining family members. Sarawak has been a great adventure but sadly it is now at an end for us. Best of luck Chris
I hope one day, I might be able to visit the three Rajahs of Sarawak, I really want to see their graves because they are very valuable figures in my country. If not for them, Sarawak would not be what it is today. Because I am also from my ancestors who fought the same with them, I would like to visit their graves. Greetings from my descendants of the Iban tribe.
Thank you for your kind greetings and for leaving such an interesting comment about your own ancestry. My wife and daughter were in Sarawak just over a year ago but sadly I could not join them. We had hoped to move to Kuching but when the government changed the SMM2H visa rules it was no longer such an attractive prospect for us to do so. Their graves are in a lovely part of England but quite under-stated given who they were. I really hope you can make it one day. If you do get to the UK, just let me know and I can help you with your plans to see the graves. The same Brooke family who are the descendants of the white Rajah's still live in Burrator House near to the cemetery. It is such a fascinating piece of history . I wish you all the best with your future travels and hope you can one day see the graves.
Go in ohio
How is ur daughter?
All good thanks but we are still in UK and have not moved yet 👍
i would love to visit plymouth meet george one day. This video is perfectly edited, the person who edited this video is so talented.
We would love to welcome you to Devon if we are still here! At times we do wonder whether having another adventure is the right thing to do as the UK is a good country to live in but life is also about new experiences and Sarawak would certainly be different ☺️👍
what makes you to relocate from London to sarawak? Very curious to know.
Sadly we don't live in London. We actually live in a small village in the English countryside which has no shops Andi's difficult to access. We chose to live here initially because we thought we would like rural life but we don't. The cost of housing in English cities is so high, we thought we would look at Malaysia as I have friends in KL. In looking at KL, we came across Sarawak which also has good schools and a strong historical UK connection. 👍☺️
@@anenglishmaninoviedospain i got it. Great decision.
@@mithila2399 I sure hope so. The schooling side of things was a concern but they have 2 or 3 great schools in Kuching so that side of things is sorted 👍
@@mithila2399Not yet but hoping to submit in the next 4-6 weeks. Doing the medical in the UK is not cheap (circa £600)- the rest is relatively straight forward such as police clearance certificate and bank statements etc. 👍
@@anenglishmaninoviedospainhey, hope we will get more video from you about sarawak, school details and so on.
Hello, are you originally born in Malaysia and then settled in london or are you originally from london?
Actually we have no connection at all with Malaysia other than the fact we have Malaysian friends in KL. I am from the UK and my wife is from Manila in the Philippines. Sarawak seemed like an interesting option as we currently live in Devon in England close to where the "white Rajahs" are buried and their story was so fascinating. 👍😇
Very helpful, thank you! Would you show more of daily life there, as for example the city, superarkets... and your impressions? I'm considering doing the same and going to Kuching soon.
Thank you for your very helpful feedback. We will try and make the next video more practically focussed. ☺️👍

I'm happy to hear you've enjoyed you stay so far. Sadly I'm abroda for the next two weeks so simply wish you both the best in your remaining stay. Eventually we'll catch up when you move over and with your husband Chris.
Many thanks for your kind comments. Definitely look forward to catching up with you when we finally relocate ☺️👍
