Great historic monument that tells the the traditional way in making sago, a local delicacy. Tourist might overlooked this monument as it is surrounded by the busy fish market nearby and also beside it there is more visible new temple. The is a courtyard with benches for those who want to relax nearby the monument.

A piece of history. The texts extracted from the monument are as follows; "The Sago palm thrives in the peat soils of the Rajang Delta. In the 19th century, local chieftains grew rich from the labour of farmers who extracted the starchy pith of tall palms manually. Sago factories streamlined this process. In the early 20th century, the price of sago flour fell sharply. The Mukah factory closed leaving behind a 20 metre tall brickwork chimney."
