Music and dance is part of every
day life on the islands of the Timur People. And they brought
with them their music and dance when they migrate to Sabah, the eastern
part of Malaysia.
In the plantations where they live you
can hear wonderful traditional singing and chanting as they harvest the
crops, as they stroll along the country roads. Old people, young
people, children - all sing. They have songs for every occasion –
accompanied by traditional drums and gongs, or by guitars.
Here in the annual events of Tawau
Cultural Carnival, Timor people are happy to share their
culture with you --their traditional dances for social and and for
ritual.
