HANDCRAFT BY INDIGENOUS TEMIAR ETHNIC





I have requested my Temiar ethnic indigenous friends to do some handcraft from the bamboo and rattan. These raw materials are easily available in their surrounding. 'Gaharu' ,'keruing', 'raja kayu' and others are difficult now due to logging and illegal harvest of these woods. These will be their alternative source of income to upgrade their living standard. The products are highly sought by city folks. I do tell them careful of middle man whom will take advantage on them by selling their products.

They are obedient thus produce some sample products as follows:





Those who want to buy or  plan to market the products can contact me. I do this voluntarily without personal interest merely to assists my indigenous friends to have a better living. 

I have also requested them to made furniture as the demand by the city folks is high too.

I personally hope that JAKOA shall play an important role to assists the indigenous people to upgrade their living standard faithfully and sincerely as these is their duties and responsibilities, whilst these is what they are paid for. JAKOA shall market the indigenous people products.
