LUNDU COSTUME IN BHF 2014 (SELAKO TRIBE)

Good Morning and Happy Friday

Today I would like to share about my friend from my hometown LUNDU who joined Borneo Hornbill Festival 2014 and present Selako traditional costume. Many people not familiar with this traditional and here some info that I get from contestant themselves. 

SELAKO TRIBE.

His name is Pete Morni and studies in Universiti Malaya. He joined BHF competition because he wants to bring out and present Selako costume to outsider. Many people don’t know Selako tribe because this tribe is minority in Sarawak. This tribe origin only exists in Sematan and Lundu area in Sarawak. With this competition, he manages get two title from BHF 2014 which are Mr Photogenic & Mr Spirit of Harvest Borneo Hornbill Festival 6th @ 2014. I’m proud with him because he tries his best in making preparation and do a lot research about his costume.  His costume that he used for that day is called as ‘Baju Gayang’ which it special for ‘Tarian Totonkng’. This Baju Gayang made from bark cloth.

Selako costume which called ‘Baju Gayang’

p/s : I’m also impressed with this costume cause myself never see this costume. What I know Selako costume for men only a simple black vest.

Here some of picture of him in BHF 2014:
