Sarawakian Spirit

When I was a child, I couldn't fully understand my town's distinctive character. I mean, as a kid I thought what was so special about Sarawak than other places? This question has answers to it when time passes by and I begin to understand and appreciate and love the norm and notable surroundings of Sarawak. The multi-race, multi-culture and multi-tradition are quite ample to prove the uniqueness of Sarawak. I couldn't emphasize enough that the heritage left by our ancestors is our pride and love for the land. In terms of fashion, I was attracted to the various patterns and designs symbolic of all different race,s especially from the tribe of Iban, the Pua Kumbu. Historically, Pua Kumbu was woven by the women of the Iban on their garments for festive occasions or traditional rituals ceremony. I was glad to find such a pattern on a scarf which was super comfy and stylish for any occasion. Once you're here, I couldn't promise you wouldn't find any Pua Kumbu prints in Sarawak.
