Rebuilding of Long Balau

Long Balau,  a 26-room longhouse, was razed to the ground on the evening of November 3rd 2020. It is a village we consider to be a haven of rattan basketry.

We are initiating this donation drive for our artisans and their families to rebuild their homes. All contributions to this fund will be distributed to the artisans and a report will be issued periodically on our Instagram and Facebook platforms as well as here.

Who Are The Penans?

The Penans are Sarawak’s last nomadic tribe, having settled into structured communities between 30 years to as recent as 5 years ago. Their deep connection with the rainforests sees them still relying on the jungles to support their lives and supplement their livelihoods.
