Lun Bawang ladies in their traditional costumes
It is not uncommon to find Lun Bawang (also known as Murut) ladies adorned themselves with beaded headgear when attendimg official functions or during communal festivals.
In this picture the ladies were attending function in conjunction with the launching of the promotion of Adan Rice or also popularly known as Bario Rice held in Kuching recently. Those headgear are made from certain beads with yellow as the base colour.
They call themselves Lun Dayeh in Sabah; particularly densed in population in Sipitang & the nighbouring townships of Lawas and Miri.
