Orang Kayan

Citizens

There are approximately 15,000 Kayans in Sarawak. The Kayan tribe built their longhouses in the northern interiors of Sarawak midway on the Baram River, the upper Reiang River and the lower Tubau River, and are well known for their boat making skills, which they carve from a single block of belian, the strongest of the tropical hardwoods.
