I was taken an evening bus from Pontianak to Kuching, the bus depart from Pontianak downtown at 09.00 PM, arrive at Entikong in the early morning at about 05.00 AM and all bus passengers should process to the Indonesia immigration check point, thence after in only 3 minutes walking distance to Tebedu, Malaysian Immigration check point to process your passport. The bus fare from Pontianak to Kuching is IDR 165,000
Kuching's regional express bus terminal is located along Jalan Penrissen, located south of the city. All long-distance express buses arrive from and leave for major Sarawak cities like Sibu, Bintulu and Miri, as well as Pontianak in Indonesia.

There is a new city taxi using Daihatsu Ceria. I never try it before but it's pretty small and cute. Unfortunately is hard to be seen except Gajahmada Rd. Please refer to travel agent for more detail.
