Today, the Sabahan people celebrates Kaamatan (Harvest Festival) as a way of thanking Kinoringan (God) for the abundance of food we have in our land.
So to all my family and friends,
Kotobian Tadau Kaamatan Kuma Doid Diau
Kadaa nogi moginum ogumu, kio?
Kadaa hiivai zou doiti KL, aiso gia koruhang zou moginum doiti. LOL!
During a Kaamatan mass in our church in Kunak.
My dad is holding the gong while Rev. Fr. Nicholas beats the gong, marking the celebration of Kaamatan.
The Kadazan traditional dance, Sumazau.
My sister is the one to the far left.
Happy Kaamatan & Gawai Dayak to the easterners.
I really do miss the Kunak town of Sabah.. especially the people, the sights, the sound, the snakes, wild boar…etc (Me hungry) :love:
Kotobian Tadau Kaamatan Kuma Doid Diau ;-) Did I say it right?
shag: Happy Kaamatan to you too.
Kay: I miss Kunak too. And I am definitely hungry right now. :P
Gallivanter: You got it right!! :B
Happy Kaamatan to you too!
Seeing your pics made me miss home now…nobody here wears baju Kadazan and looking at your dad reminded me of mine too! :*(
we’ve got something similar in my village. You go to church and, according to the history, the priest gives away little pieces of bread and you have to keep one at home during a year which will help you to avoid hunger :)
Kotobian Tadau Kaamatan nogi doid diau Cindy.
I think we went back at the wrong time, should’ve waited for the Kaamatan Hilghlights. Missing the hinava and bambangan oredi.
Happy Kaamatan, cindy! :x :x
Happy holiday to u.BTW do u drink tuah??
Horny Ang Moh: I’m a beer person, not tuak – during this occasion. LOL!
