Unduk Ngadau 2011

A few days have passed after the much celebrated Harvest Festival or Kaamatan as we call it in Sabah. A whole month of drinking and being merry which ends with the crowning of the new Unduk Ngadau - Harvest Festival Queen. The title in which most Sabahan girls vie for. Well, a very much sought after title, comes with a pretty heavy load of controversy. And this year, just like any other year, people expresses their disappointment about the winner and how or why she won and how or why she shouldn't have won. 


Exhibit A - Surat Terbuka kepada Jawatankuasa Unduk Ngadau KDCA (Aduan dan Bantahan Penganjuran Unduk Ngadau 2011) From Mr Melton Martin


I find some of his points are very relevant. Like how the contestants have to do hair and make-up twice in 2 days and having to bear extra costume rental cost. It's not cheap! Some of his other points, however were a wee bit accusative, without proper and valid proof.  


Some people might think this guy is stupid but I think he's brave for having enough courage to speak up  rather than talking behind as anon. Kudos to Mr, Melton Martin :P



With all things said, I would like to congratulate Bo Tiza Disimon for winning Unduk Ngadau 2011. I pity you for having to face all the haters. Be strong. It comes with the title babe. You want it, you got it. 


Peace :P
