Overview
When he first came to Dalat, Sarawak, a village of wooden homes by the Oya river in 1988, there was nothing for him to look forward to. The priestless St Bernard's Church was badly neglected while the 5,000 Melanau Roman Catholic residents led a casual but unchallenging life on the batang (river). Then Massang decided that something more had to be done for the Melanau youth in the Dalat township. Dalat was inaccessible until recently, with developments in the State. Even so, to reach it you'll need about three hours on the road to Sibu (if the muddy 34km stretch of the Selangau-Mukah road is in good condition), followed by a dangerous two-hour journey by sea-and-river (or a 25-minute flight by Twin Otter) to Mukah and from there, a 40-minute drive to reach Dalat.
