Thanks for posting on the malat and the penat. The Penans are our neighbours and we live happily side by side. By the way i am an orang ulu from Kenyah tribe. The malats(baing in Kenyah) and the penats(po'eh) are the intergral parts of our daily life in Baram. Eventhough I live in town now, i still keep those precoius tools. Mine was bought from the Penans in Long San too. Keong,

Yes, I think you are right. My brief 'encounter' with Ngang and his mates really demonstrated to me how humble yet able the Penan people are. It is a shame that their land is being taken from them. I know many are trying to support their fight. Let us all do what we can to help them. Hi Mawi!

Hope you enjoyed your trip. I do hope Ngang and his people will win this battle over the land (which is rightfully theirs!). Do hope to return there some day. Cheers Hi Terry!

When I was with the Penan i got to test one out.... very nice! Just a little correction. A Penan blade is not made with the intention to behead. The Penan are probably the most peaceful of all the Dayak tribes and have no warrior culture. They have only had to fight recently and thats against the Sawarak government and the timber companies...

It really takes some skills using it. Hi James…it is a nice blade but I doubt if I will use it. It really takes some skills using it.
