The Gawai Dayak we all know today
Contributed by baluirayang ak.a. Babuk Andrea
Gawai Dayak 2007 is celebrated this 1st June. It was officially gazetted on 25th September 1964 as a public holiday and was first celebrated on 1st June 1965. It is a symbol of unity and entity for the Dayak community and is celebrated as a yearly Dayak Festival. Since then, it becomes an essential part of Dayak traditional and cultural life, and is a day of thanksgiving to mark successful harvest.
Kumang Gawai 2007
Exactly five days from today on 1st June, Gawai Dayak 2007 will be celebrated all over Sarawak. In the spirit of the Dayak festival, this week I will update this blog with Gawai related postings, just to keep myself and other Dayaks who are away from home in Gawai mood.
It’s becoming a tradition that every year there will be Gawai beauty pageant contest held from kampung level to state level. This year’s Kumang (Keligit for Orang Ulu) and Keling/Keles (Belawan for Orang Ulu) Gawai 2007 was held in Miri on 6th May 2007 and hosted by Kayan Association Miri.
