Harvest Festival and Unduk Ngadau Kaamatan Penampang 2013

It's nearly the end of June now but I guess the Harvest Festival celebration is not yet over. Some districts in Sabah are just preparing to hold such festivals at their level - village, district, etc.

Here is a revisit of the one for Penampang District, back in May 2013, mainly focused on the final day where Unduk Ngadau Kaamatan pageant was held.

 Tan Sri Bernard Giluk Dompok 'harvested' the first bunch of paddy to officiate the event.

 Sanggulan hebat! This is the gong-hairstyle.


 Heavily laced with live flowers, this one.


 The Penampang costume looks simple and neat.


All smiles!
