Disappearing Miri - Hornbill House (Miri)

The Hornbill House in Miri is a special place for expatriate women who are wives of Shell personnel.
They form a club called Petroleum Wanita, registered in 1986. But in fact any woman can join that club according to one of the members, and even hold some positions.

They organize a lot of activities and get themselves into the news. The publicity also helps them  win more membrs.

This Hornbill House has now been demolished. I am sure many women who used to live in Miri would have fond memories of their activities here.
