Contrary to one particularly popular but inaccurate online map's insistence on it being the main river along Miri Peninsular, the Baong River is NOT Miri's main river (Miri River); it is small stream that flows into South East located near the Miri City Fan and the Krokop Cemetery, flowing from North East near Krokop.
Nowadays built up with concrete banks, besides being mistaken as the main river of Miri for the internet dependent, visually it could also be easily mistaken as a large monsoon drain located in that area.
