Lundu is a town located in the Northwest of Kuching Division of Sarawak, Malaysia, and borders with Indonesian Province of West Kalimantan.HistoryLittle is known about the history of Lundu. The lands around Lundu were empty of people until relatively recently. The main river is called Batang Kayan, "the Kayan river," but there is no evidence that any Kayan people ever lived there. In the mid-eighteenth century a group of Bidayuh people from near Bau migrated and settled on the west bank of the Batang Kayan, where Kampong Stunggang Melayu now stands. They came to be called the Dayak Lundu, and though the last member of the tribe died in the 1960s, you can still see the grove of durian trees they planted.
