MURUT PEOPLE

The Murut are an indigenous ethnic group inhabiting northern inland regions of Borneo. A large percentage of the Murut communities are in the southwest interior of Sabah, east Malaysia, specifically the districts of Keningau, Tenom and Nabawan Pensiangan, along the Sapulut and Padas Rivers. The literal translation of murut is "hill people".

The Murut population in Brunei is mainly found in the sparsely populated Temburong district. They once supplied military might to the Sultans of Brunei. Their population has dwindled in recent years[1]. They are defined as one of the seven indigenious groups that are considered to be Bumiputera in Brunei.

The group is divided between lowland (Timugon) and highland (Tagol) subgroups. They speak the Murutic languages, a branch of the Austronesian family. The Tagol Murut language serves as their lingua franca.

Great capture on emotions here. I like this shot, its a bit blurry though. I like the colors and the details on this shot. A shot like this is something I would see in a travel brochure. Thanks for sharing!
Cheers!
