Gawai beauty contest - preliminary round
Posted by Uchu Keling on 12th May 2008 in Event, Miri City
I was at the Preliminary Round of the Miri Divisional Gawai Dayak Kumang/Keling-Belawan contest last night. The Preliminary Round was held at Eastwood Valley Golf and Country with a full capacity crowd, despite the storm and heavy rain early evening.
Here are some of the photos that I took.

it’s my dream to see kumang to compete in higher level…miss world and miss universe
perhaps we can upgrade the status…kumang to be our ambassador and this can lead them success in perhaps in entertainmen industry..sarawak hopefully…so we can upgrade our kumang status as well as our music/entertainment industry
*hope no kumang after this will the the forgotten kumang
