Iban Culture Loving Friends - Part 1

Borneo Culture Loving Friends
Part 1 (My Best Friend, Susan Leo)

Wow, it has been quite awhile...My first post for this year is a tribute to my friends who love culture, and for this post it will be my best friend, Susan Leo.
Ms. Susan Anak Leo
I have known Susan since end of 2000..we were classmates, housemates infact sisters..Susan is of Iban and Lunbawang descendant where her father is an Iban and her mother is Lunbawang..

One of the things that made me and Susan bond very well is that we share the same interest, Borneo culture..we have been introducing culture to our West Malaysian friends eversince university years..let the photos tell you...

I'm so proud of Susan especially having known her from her tomboy days and now a strong willed woman who is in touch with her culture. So readers...for me in order to love culture you must embrace the essence of culture which to be proud of it..I hope the younger generations do not forget our roots as history teaches us what we were and how to react to the future...
