It is actually my wedding photo (in Rungus traditional costume), taken on the Valentine’s day 2004 (my wedding day there). Photo was taken with an analogue camera. We were sitting in a ‘platform’ (I don’t know what is it called) in front of my father-in-law’s longhouse. You can still see the structure when you visit Kg. Bavanggazo Rungus Longhouse (Maranjak Homestay).

Hey Drizad,Congratulation.
I know your father in law more than 10 years. Just visited him last week. He is a very kind person.
You look nice too.
I am working on tour program to promote maranjak home stay. Maybe we can stay in touch to do it.

Ei? You are married to a Rungus? Perhaps my dad should know your father in-law. What’s his name again?
Btw, you look like a Rungus warrior man!

Hahaha Kay! Macam warrior kah? That was my first time wearing Rungus attire. Itu pun pinjam from my brother-in-law.
My mentua’s name is Momili Milaad, and the head of the longhouse is his brother, Maranjak Milaad. I think your father should know them as it is their family who runs the longhouse in Kg. Bavanggazo.

Ahh..Last year I brought some friends from KL together with my family to this Maranjak Homestay. I remember, my father spoke to Mr Maranjak, they know each other. (Rungus tribe is a close knit community anyway)
My dad’s kampung is Kg Popot, pass through Sikuati. His name is Thomas Parun Kastum. Chewah.. small world lah. Another reason why blogging is so wonderful!
June 22nd, 2007 at 2:46 pm
Yes, yes… Agree with you. I wonder you still speak Rungus???
June 22nd, 2007 at 2:51 pm
I wish I can. Mom and Pop never really teach us. My mom is Kadazan and Dad is Rungus. Just a few little words that allow me to survive like ‘louson’ or things like that..

Hahaha… I dah agak dah. Maybe it will happen to my kids also…
Bapak Jawa, mak Rungus, so anak2?
June 23rd, 2007 at 7:10 am
Well, you definitely still can do something about it..
June 23rd, 2007 at 8:15 am
Yea, you are right. As my Jawa also berkarat, my wife and our nephew & niece speaks Rungus with my 3 years old son. I think he knows more vocab than me.
Hmm… I wonder if my daughter qualify for Unduk Ngadau (if she ever speaks Rungus)…

I’m sure she will. That’ll be cool!
