Abstract
MUKAH (April 21): The younger generation, particularly of the Melanau community, has been urged to preserve and carry forward the legacy of ‘Kaul’, a festive tradition that embodies unity, cultural identity, and environmental reverence.
Minister of Women, Childhood and Community Wellbeing Development Dato Sri Fatimah Abdullah emphasised that Pesta Kaul is not just an annual celebration, but a deeply rooted cultural expression of gratitude and harmony with nature.
“Kaul represents our heritage and the profound relationship between the Melanau people and the environment,” she said in her speech at the Pesta Kaul Oya sub-district celebration, held at Tapak Kaul, Pantai Kuala Hilir Oya, yesterday.
