In November 2021, Kuching joined UNESCO Creative Cities Network under its gastronomy category marking the end of a year and half application process in which civil society activists and the city government created a compelling narrative to have Sarawak’s capital recognized in this global network. Sharaad Kuttan ask Jacqueline Fong, (President, Society Atelier Sarawak), Datin Dona Drury Wee (President, Culinary Heritage And Arts Society of Sarawak) and Karen Shepherd (Editor in Chief, Cerava Sarawak) who will benefit from this accolade.
