When touring Clearwater and Wind caves in Mulu, you hop a long boat, head up river and make a stop along the way at a Penan community. There's a chance to shop for some handicrafts and see how a traditional Borneo community lives.
Literally going up river.
Long boats are the main form of transportation and they're scattered about like automobiles. Simple frame construction.
Idyllic setting.
Village details.
Malaysia offers assistance for some of Borneo's roaming communities by building permanent housing and related infrastructure. The government built the Penans these modern long houses.
