Satok Bridge
Satok Bridge or Jambatan Satok was a famous suspension bridge in Kuching city, Sarawak, Malaysia. It collapsed in 2004 during a storm. Because the bridge had many memories and was the first bridge to built in Sarawak, the government decided to rebuilt it in 2017 by choosing a local construction company, Pekerjaan Piasau Konkerit Sdn Bhd (PPK) as the main contractor. It was rebuilt in 2019, but work was suspended in October 2019 due to structural issues: an anchor block had become displaced.[1] Near the bridge is the Datuk Patinggi Haji Abdul Rahman Bridge.
