Desa IT 2009 Sarawak [#16]: Kampung Budaya Sarawak [Part 2]

For this next part…we’ll continue on our journey in the ‘village’.. the grand finale was that the organizers have a show for the tourists.. its some sort of a traditional dance.. I forgot what are the names of those dances.. I can hear when they announce it on the speakers.. but I can’t remember the name.. some of it I can’t identify what the organizers said.. anyways.. the show presents some of the tarian kaum bumiputra yg ade di Sarawak nih.. so.. same as before.. aku akan letak gamba je la…hehe.. (^_^)..

Barakallahu Lakuma

Allah memberkati untukmu dan berkat ke atasmu serta mengumpulkan kamu berdua dalam kebajikan.

Here is the place where you can see some of the kaum bumiputra Sarawak..cara hidup diorang.. pakaian.. rekabentuk rumah and so on lah.. dah name ‘culture’ kan.. so..kite tgk culture mereka lah.. Klu tak silap aku..kat tempat tu ade 5 kaum yg ditunjukkan; Iban, Penan, Bidayuh, Melanau ngan Orang-Ulu.. so..kami semua jalan2lah.. ade skali pertunjukkan tarian tradisional kaum Iban dan Orang-Ulu.. so..basically that’s it lah.. sbbkan gamba nye byk sgt.. nak cite pun.. aku tak catat dlm notepad aku.. so aku akan tunjukkan pd gamba jelah.. ni baru first part.. nti ade second part lak.. utk yg tu tempat nye still dlm vicinity taman tu... cumenye ade ‘show’ mase tu..so kite akan tgk ‘show’ tu nti.. hehe..

Desa IT 2009 Sarawak [#14]: Kembara UNIMAS

We then head on to bandar Kuching.. we left Kampung Muara Tebas hoping that maybe someday we will come back.. who knows.. Our destination was UNIMAS or Universiti Malaysia Sarawak.. just so you know.. adela ‘connection’ dgn org2 UNIMAS to be exact PRS arr.. same mcm UPG...so..tu yg melawat tu.. the campus is located just on the outskirts of Kuching.. ia merupakan salah satu IPTA yg ade kat Malaysia ni lah.. kirenye ni first time bagi aku jejak ke IPT nih.. we will be spending a night at their hostel.. bear in mind. .. bile sebut je IPTA.. segala2nya besar.. kebanyakan IPTA kat Malaysia ni kawasan die sangatlah besar.. so.. kawasan hostel die pun byk, besar dan byk bilik.. So.. we reached the compound around 11.30.. kami turunkan beg masing2 dr bas dan berkumpul … after hearing the briefing dr pihak UNIMAS. We head on to our units.. after that we had our lunch and hemat diri lah..

[..nila umah family angkat aku.. anak2 angkat duk situ ade 4 org termasuk aku..]

[27 Mac 2009]

It was quite bright that morning..the sun is high.. no sign of dark clouds hanging over the sky.. it’s a perfect Friday morning .. sort of.. Today will be our last day at Kampung Muara Tebas.. it has been almost a week and today.. we will depart and move on to our next destination.. we’re not going home yet.. but to go to another place la.. so.. yalah.. it’s the moment where usually akan ade yg menitiskan air mate.. nak berpisah dgn anak angkat.. suasana tu kadang2 mcm pilu sebentar.. its one part.. walaupun ni dah desa IT yg ke 2 dan program seumpamanya yg ke 6 kot.. perasaan tu still adelah.. cumenye kite yelah.. simpan dlm hati..

After packing our things.. we walk on to the dewan.. around 9.. ade jgk yg masih lum sampai.. so.. after a while.. we gathered.. and then klu tak silap aku ketua kampung yg bacekan doa utk slamat jalan.. agar selamat selamat sampai ke destinasi.. so.. after that sesi bergambarlah.. bergambar dgn ahli keluarga angkat.. sementare nak tunggu bas dtg.. bile bas dah sampai.. kami pun ucapkan selamat tinggal kepada penduduk Kg. Muara Tebas..

Desa IT 2009 Sarawak [#11]: Sukan-Aneka

So..petang tu.. ade sukaneka.. kat padang.. unfortunately.. because I went to naik bot ronda2 kat sungai sblm tu.. aku datang agak lambat.. by the time aku sampai.. dah start dah.. so.. bile ckp pasal sukaneka ni.. biasela.. ade permainan2 utk budak2.. utk org dewasa pun ade gak.. but mostly.. utk budak2 mcm2 ade.. judging from the picture that I have.. permainan2 yg ade utk budak2 mase tu makan epal gantung, lari ikat tali kat kaki.. pastu cari gula dlm tepung and so on.. and then ade jugak permainan ‘lontar kasih sambutlah sayang’.. yg ni kene main berpasangan… sorang akan berdiri.. lagi sorang akan berdiri lebih kurang jauh 3 meter gitu.. pastu makin lame makin ke belakang.. and then kene baling belon ke udara.. sorang baling..sorang lagi akan tangkap.. begitulah seterusnya sampai belon pecah..

And then ade tarik tali.. kali ni aku dapat join.. yeah!!.. yela..terase dah lame tak main tarik tali.. mule2 kaum perempuan main dulu.. pastu baru kaum lelaki.. the funny thing is.. bile kami tgh tarik tu.. tali terputus!.. mmg agak kelakar gakla.. turns out.. rupenye tali tu tak cukup tebal.. nipis je tgk.. agaknye kaum lelaki ni kuat sgt..tu yg terputus tuh.. hehe..

Nevertheless.. that was the climax.. sebelum bersurai ade sesi penyampaian hamper dan hadiah kpd pemenang2.. after that we all went home.. and then siap2 utk malam kebudayaan pd malam tu..
