Borneo– day 3

#KantaBorneo [1] Bendelina of Sarawak. [2] I was part of the Media team for World Indigenous Peoples Day this year, held in Bau, Sarawak #PHOAS2018. Several native organisations involved, namely Indigenous Peoples Network of Malaysia, where there was a General assembly and electoral held, plus [3] seminars and workshops. Spent most times with the [4] Semenanjungs preparing the weaves for the cultural night. Setup 2 panel exhibition [5], of portraits of Taiwan's natives, and maps of whole Malaysia [6] with both cameras [7], attending the programs, with portrait sessions inbetween. And a spontaneous exhibit of printed portraits hung to dry (3rd batch) [8], while nights were with my new Sape teacher [9], and being with natives from all around Malaysia.
