        "question": "What are the ground transportation options in Kuching?",
        "answer": "From Kuching International Airport, taxis are the most popular and reliable way to reach the city center, about 11 km away, with a journey of roughly 20–30 minutes. Ride‑sharing services like Grab are widely used and often cheaper than taxis. A free electric city bus (Route 103) connects the airport to major stops downtown and is a great budget option, though it runs on a fixed loop schedule. Car rentals are available at the airport if you prefer to drive yourself.",
