In Germany millions of TV license funds are wasted on huge crews, overboarding theory research and complicated, overengineered documentary productions. This is incredible production quality and most importantly an honest, detailed insight full of dignity and human warmth.
cannot agree more, it is a very heart touching documentary, absolutely enjoyed it, and shared it with my friends.
But still DW makes pretty good documentaries.
im gegenteil glaube ich deutsche Dokus sind echt klasse. Ich hoffe mehr Leute wuerden oeffentliche Sendungen schaetzen
Yep straight into the Palm Oil and deforestation propaganda. Another bloody upstart filmmaker lecturing people. Closes down. AVOID Best Watching politically neutral films AVOID PROPAGANDA like this
@@nashdapistolshrimp8641 what is DW?
Thankyou for this video. I was born and raised in Jungle of Papua New Guinea and witnessed destruction of tropical rain forest just for few dollars for Malaysia oil palm plantations. As children of missionaries, we were fortunate getting better education and living abroad. Most of our relatives still in of rainforest and what mother Earth can provide. GOD bless your work and continue to bring fine journalism to the world for voiceless.
Not only PNG, Borneo and Papua indonesia has been destroyed too by mining industry and palm plantation. Destroyed by capitalism and government hahaha. Local people become “begger”.
I'd trade places with them anyday. Go home. This West is evil.
This video truly reminded me of the logging in Vanimo
@@AnenLaylle7023 yep fk a 9-5 I want to live how humans are supposed to live.
God bless you too. I pray that the people here, get the help they need to live as they have for all time. That they are respected all people should be. Your people too. Thank you for your comment. May God bless and keep you and your family, who love and keep the jungle that God so bountifully provided, and you have taken such good care of.
This is the best documentary on the Penan I have seen. I once lived in Borneo and spent time with several Dayak tribes including Kelabit and Penan in Sarawak and Punan in Kalimantan. The Penan are truly the most intelligent, knowledgeable, generous and kind people I have ever met. Your coverage of the issues effecting the Penan is extensive and sympathetic. Also good to see your mention of Bruno Manser and his good work to help the Dayaks battle the logging companies and the corrupt Malaysian government who are destroying their land.
@@alambiduanchanel2384 yes I am serious !
There are some more incl the impressive history of Bruno Manser who accompanied the Penan in their fight but disappeared mysteriousky in the heart of Borneo
I was very blessed to learn just a little bit of the way they live. We need to protect and help these people, for they keep knowledge alive that is needed for all mankind. Their stewardship and symbiotic way of living in the jungle is absolutely the most beautiful thing I have seen for a long time.
I love the fact that you werent asking any stupid or controversial questions to the Penan tribe. You were very respectful of their culture and understood and was empathetic to their woes without appearing pretentious. Great video
"One day, the tables will turn, and the wealth of every country will be defined by the nature they hold." Beautiful doc, thank you.
beatiful
Beautiful comment there, and I for one hope we can combine the greatest technology with the deepest nature.

As an Iban, I have to say the Penan tribe is truly the heart of our Borneo jungle, I’ve never seen people who lives so peacefully in the nature and respect the environment so much. Logging companies are just crazy here in Borneo, a lot of illegal trades not to mention, even the legal ones takes things to the next level. It harms their customs and traditions and I’m ashamed of the lack of awareness the people have here, because everybody seems to chase modernity but have little to none about the consequences this will have to the future of our generation and all the beings in the nature. This is such a beautiful video, everything was very well captured, I have gained even more infos. Thank you and keep it up!
You yourselves are beautiful too my darling...
Ko jaku Iban rangka
Asa Kacak, simmer down there buddy.
it is nice to see the life of these individuals very nice
You here too. Mhmmmmmmmmmm
I was born in Borneo, Sarawak , living in Vancouver now. Thank you for the wonderful work you have done. I believe you took this document near the Mulu National Park. I was there many times .
Sy sangat suka dengan film dokumenter tentang alam dan suku dlm suatu wilayah. Dan semoga Chanel UA-cam ini makin sukses dan terus berkembang
Not one ad was played in this movie. What a king. Not even trying to make revenue from an outstanding piece of content. Fair play sir.
As a Malaysian. It really hit me deep. everything that Raphael says about the government is true. they don't really care about the nature. All they see is $$$. And every problems, conflicts that were mention in this video are only the surface of a deeper problems. I hope this video get noticed and help people realize the importance of preserving nature. Peace from NORTH BORNEO!

Mohamad Fazrie... Peace to you Mr. Fazrie🙏🏼
Kindness, generosity & courage, we must preserve those traits🙏🏼
This is sad. All along I thought Sarawak and Sabah's rainforests were well-protected by the Malaysian government. I just found out how the Chinese have penetrated the area and corrupted officials; converting lush forests to cement cities and building huge dams which will wipe out vast areas of the forests with flooding, displacing tribes....and a potential source of major disaster. Please do something to protect your forests and rich wildlife. Peace from neighbor Philippines.
So true! So sad to travel from Brunei to Sibu and see only palm plantations. Love from Brunei!
This documentary is outstanding. The music was as relaxing as their culture. They take only what they need from the forest & have readily available solutions to most problems. This is what I’d call a self sufficient way of life.
I pray that something can be done to protect them & their ways before it’s to late.
🙏🙏🙏.
Greed for money & control has taken over our world. Hopefully the Penan (?) people have more time to live their way of life.
Thank you 👵🏻👩🌾❣️
MAY GOD BLESS All OF THE PEOPLE LIVING HERE
Thank U 4 this VIDEO.....
It is heartbreaking how they ask the outsiders to tell the world about their struggles and to ask for help. No one is coming to help them, they are the last of their kind. Very thankful for this documentary.
This comment is incredibly depressing because it's true. But that means, those of us who see are just going to sit back and do nothing while these people, perhaps the last inocents on Earth, are eaten by the machine of commerce...
Boycott products that are made for profits at the expense of others
You’re right, but what can we do?
@@natepeace1737 Refuse products that have palm oil. Tell food suppliers why. Tell people not buy anything made with tropical wood. Protest governments if that is possible.It's an up hill battle and it is a global battle.
do somthing about it...instead of leaving a messege on youtube
"one day the table will turn, and the wealth of every country will be defined by the nature they hold" ...so true
Thank you for sharing the truths of our wisdom leaders.
Each one of us have the power to help these communities - our future depends on it.
Much love and respect!

Christina you yourself are afflicted by disease called Christianity which brought capitalism and destruction. You can help only when you recognize your conditioning that your forefathers were nature loving tribes converted by missionaries as in above documentary (see crosses around tribals neck). You are simply a cog in this machinery.
I read this just as I reached this part in the video!
What a beautiful docu and an ode to Bruno Manser, who only got recognition in his home town years after he had died. I remember hearing him live in a radio interview in the 90’. Everyone me including regarded him a crackhead and dreamer and his disappearance in 2000 passed largely unnoticed. Only much much later I learned about his achievements and the risks he took. And I would have had a chance to attend one of his dia shows in the 90’s and missed it. Thanks for this beautiful film.
Beautiful. I needed this, thank you for being there.
I have tears on my eyes to see them live like that.I’m a Dayak from part of Borneo Indonesia,but now I lived in Hawaii USA 🇺🇸,every year I go visit my family in central borneo.I used to lives in the forest with all my family.
I'm sorry for the loss that your people have experienced.. Such a beautiful and intriguing culture.
bet life was much happier in the forest, i would never change my forest for City! ever
That you are a Dayak proves most interesting and corroborates knowledge about more-than-natural history alone as Western [Christian] natural history dares to postulate as true. The name Dayak can just about be assured derives from the name and now-long forgotten great Spiritual master of considerable merit when the ancient continent of Lemuria [also known as Mu] existed, which predates the time of the ancient continent of Atlantis.
Lemuria stretched across a vast area on earth -- from lands as far north and westerly as Russia and western Asia to as far south and east as what is today known as the Pacific Ocean, of which Australia in the south ocean was a part: a flat topograpy comprised most of Lemuria, typfied in the lands and geology extant in Australia; for a vast continent, indeed, was Lemuria.
And, so, Dayaka was his name, a then-great spiritual master during just one time in the existence of Lemuria, and who was one of the first Initiates in the mighty Ancient Order of the Boucharan -- an order that still exists to this very day, though few are they who know of their existence or that they ever existed on earth; an order that taught humankind virtually everything that today many of the respective civilizations on earth can take for granted, but whose practices and traditions presume to sustain as part of their lives and livelihoods.
Lemurians were a brown race of people the like of whom prove respresented throughout all southern Asia, Oceania, and on and into the subcontinent of India, and that of Sri Lanka, Myanmar and those areas in that part of the world.
Look more into the history of the Bourcharan order, also known as the Bouchakoum, which go back into the most ancient times of earth -- hundreds of thousands of years. Earth is a most ancient orb, indeed.

One of the best "guy with a camera" documentaries I've ever seen (I especially liked the music!)- it was just as good as any doc made by big fancy production companies
Ya the music is sick
I wouldn't say as good. I would say better than any big fancy production :)
I admit that the music is reeeeaaally good, combined with a...yeah "guy with a camera" video. 3 months production with almost the same length as the common movies, I wonder if his 6 months documentary is at another level of Borneo Avatar movie and I'll buy a ticket on the first day it's released in cinema!!!
Or better..
Jep, lets al just agree its actualy the best for now. And hope for more.
I'm watching it for the second time now, Raphael, great job! Thanks for sharing! I cried a little tear on several occasions.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience with the penan people they are truly amazing ❤
I can't begin to tell you how much I enjoyed your documentary. You explained everything so well. The names of the insects and snakes, etc. was so very informative. Thank you so much for your work and the risks you took in making this documentary. I would never be able to see these lifestyles in person but I feel like I'm really getting to see this first hand through your eyes. Thanks again.
I've never seen so many happy faces and talented people without Instagram without Facebook without a car without a smartphone without Netflix without Amazon without RedBull ... but in harmony with nature. Thanks

One of the best and WELL done documentary on the topic I have watched. Thank you!
The palm oil industry is the most horrible crime against humanity that I've seen in my life! I seen it a few years ago flying to Jakarta and Palankaraya Indonesia as well as Maldives, most of those Asian countries are just wiped out, all the beautiful land is going to palm oil production, it's sickening! Makes my heart sad, thank you for showing these beautiful peoples amazing culture...
because of the palm oil industry people are killing each other for land and to plant the palm oil here in the Philippines
@@vagerplayz1999 it's horrible!
Seed oils are generally not healthy
A well made documentary. As a Lun Bawang from the northern part of Sarawak, we always admire and respect the Penan people, they are tough and yet friendly people. Some live near my village in the mountains of Sarawak and my parents usually provide them with some necessity that are not usually found in the forest (sugar, tea etc). I remember during one of this trip, one of them, a kid of mere 12 years old, when we were about to leave their place, told us to be careful cause a heavy rain is coming and sure enough, minutes after our depature, it rain heavily. They understand the forest more than most tribes in Borneo as most of us have been modernized and we lose bits of our ancestors ways of life.
Some people go to the white man's school to learn to read books .. yet forget that the very first book ever written is the "Book of Nature" .. so how bad is illiteracy in the world?
nice
Are you Kelabit?
Not even National Geography can make such quality films like this, this is really amazing 😍
agreed. this documentary is soo good.
They can, but yes this is a good documentary. No need to bring anyone else down just state that’s you enjoyed it
@@mathewcobb9443 They can, but they don't /won't! Do you work for National Geographic? If not, why are you so prickly about a non-existent criticism from SAYEGHSAU. You come across as a very uppity and annoying individual.
@@wefukthenwo so you are saying that people can't take offense to something unless it pertains to them?
Yes!
Excellent documentary! Thank you for venturing out. Its been 5 years I wonder what is happening. I also loved the music.
Amazing documentary...i am Malaysian. I am proud of our beautiful natives of Borneo Sabah Sarawak. True to the soil. Our Governments do not respect them and protect their lands and culture enough. No matter how many the Governments have changed... they have failed in this aspect. The Penans and other types of natives harvest v only b what they need. They have great respect to nature, environment, wildlife.... far more civilised than greedy cooperations and governments.
Their story is very much like Australian Aboriginees and American Natives.
Every Government has a duty towards its Natives. You can't keep stealing from them and chasing them from the soil they have grown on. Its the Government and Local States to be blamed for selling State lands to logging or coporate bodies. Shameful greed..... without regard to the souls that lived in the jungles. Thankyou Rafa for a beautiful dedication to Penans and also Bruno Manser. ❤
You deserve much more views and Best Documentary Award🎉
This should be shown in every school to educate people about conservation and the importance of sharing ancestral knowledge. Extremely Well done and educational. Thank you
it is not benefit like u know maybe!
Saludos gracias por el documental desde costa rica
Incredible. This feels different than most documentaries. More personal, more engaged, more caring!
This was such a pleasure to watch! Thank you so much 👏🏽👏🏽 .
One of the best documentary I have watched on youtube. Thanks for sharing their story to the world. We really need to protect their home and save their knowledge before its too late.
its been 2 years Ive last watched this documentation.
I think its an absolute masterpiece of social criticism with authenticity and skill for filmography.
I wish more documentations would be that good.
You deserved much more respect from the society. People are blogging day to day to earn money without any effort. You are just spend three months to shoot this whole episode. Hats off man. Much love from ❤️❤️. india👍
Rafael, you are freaking AWESOME. Your films and your music are holy GOLD!
ONE OF THE BEST DOCUMENTARIES I'VE SEEN! GREAT EDITING, REALLY NICE FILM!
I'm Luigi from Italy, and this documentary hit me deep inside. I knew nothing about the Penan and their culture, and I saw a strong connection with nature that all we have lost a long time ago. Thanks for sharing it, I think I will support the Bruno Manser Fonds. Respect and preserve nature

Bro i dont remember watching something that got me like this Video. The whole World needs to See this. Thank you vor this incredible masterpiece!!!!
There are tribes like this who live in the Rain forests of Africa. One tribe I watched on UA-cam the forest people of Guinea, here are some people still not contacted that live in the African forests if they see the foreigners they hide, they use bows and arrows to hunt, they watch the foreigners chopping their land and they just move further into the forests, as they are small tribes who cannot fight a load of men with guns, though some white men where found dead there a long time ago, the tribe moved on, they have never spoke to them and I hope we never get hold of them, they are the original indigenous people of Africa, and should be left alone to live in the paradise that was provided by Mother Nature. They live exactly live the people of Borneo forest, only they don’t use poisonous darts anymore. The big logging companies are doing the same thing to its people also, killing the forests not replanting and causing Climate change. There is a documentary about the uncontacted people of Africa on UA-cam.
As an anthropologist who works closely with Dayak and Punan peoples of Indonesian Borneo, I just want to say how much I appreciate your documentary. I find that many filmmakers are quite biased in their representations of forest-dwelling people like the Penan, essentialising them, speaking for them, representing them as primitive or unchanging. So I didn't have high hopes for the film... But I was so wrong! I was SO pleasantly surprised by this excellent piece of film-making. There are a couple of anthropological notes/critiques that are worth mentioning about the film, but by far and away on the whole, I am very impressed by your film, including both with what you went through to make the film (especially as someone who is intimately aware of how very uncomfortable trekking and sleeping in the jungle can be), and how much humility, respect, and sincerity you bring into this project. Absolutely most important of all, I appreciate how you let the people you film with speak for themselves for a good deal of the film. I can sense the rapport you've built with those that you show on screen and hope that you've managed to maintain those good relationships. Two questions: 1, do you speak the language? 2, were there counter-voices who you excluded from the film? Outstanding job. Seems like a real labor of love.
thanks a lot Michael, great to read you.
1- no i don't speak the language
2- this movie is just about those who survived the ecocide and are keeping the culture alive.
best wishes
@@RaphaelTreza Hi Raphael. I'm watching this again, and again, my jaw is on the floor. So impressive. I can't speak to your craft as a film maker, as I really know nothing about it, other than to say this is visually beautiful with a compelling and emotive narrative, but watching it again I'm finding more and more things that I appreciate from an anthropological perspective about this film. I wonder how you would feel about using this film in a seminar context.... are there any specific considerations or liscensing issues that I should be aware with if I share this with students? Are there any things that you would like to share outside the context of the film? Should I just message you? Again, this is a group of people I feel very attached to and I can't begin to tell you how happy it makes me to see such a beautiful representation. Thank you for your work.
thanks Michael, feel free to dm, my work is free of use for non commercial purpose, and i would be more than happy to know it's used in a seminar.
@@michaelmyers3205 My introduction to the Penan was during the Confrontation of 64/65/66. I lived alongside the Kelabit , the Murut and the Selakit. The Penan were so shy and elusive, we only met up with them by accident. What I really want to put over is, I feel absolutely privileged to have witnessed these amazing peoples, not just the penan , all the clans and of course what was then an amazing country.
I have re- visited Sarawak , 2008 and have been saddened by the changes.
Estos son los documentales que me quitan el aburrimiento. Son muy importantes y hermosos los bosques y selvas tropicales. los ríos y lo más importante las personas que lo habitan son geniales, Gracias por compartir estos vídeos ya tienes un suscriptor más saludos desde Cúcuta Colombia 🇨🇴👍🏡
Enlightening to say the least . Thank you kindly from Calgary Alberta Canada .
This is one of the most beautiful thing I've seen in a while. Thank you for your work.
"The Penan, people for whom kindness, generosity and courage is a way of life. Their ingenuity and the elegant solutions they employ to thrive in some of the most challenging and complex environments, must not be lost."
Fantastic job!!
Most Amazing documentary flims I have ever seen. It's very heart touching and sad to know the truth ..... Thanks and keep up the good work.
I lived in Malaysia and I saw so many loggers and palm oil plantations. I could feel the change of temperature once I left the rainforest and arrived in palm oil plantations.
I am happy you are giving a voice to the voiceless.
Great filming, sublime nature.. really enjoyed the music.
"One day, the tables will turn, and the wealth of every country will be defined by the nature they hold." Beautiful doc, thank you.
I think its an absolute masterpiece of social criticism with authenticity and skill for filmography.
It's actually rare to enjoy this level of honesty in a documentary.
Man, you deserve to be known by the whole world! Amazing documentary. Much love from Colombia.

Thank you for this video. I have been Borneo, Brunei and Sarawak jungles i visited Evans house long house flashback me previous visit these trives.
Thank you for this amazing video Mr Treza💚I'm one of the Iban Tribe from Sarawak. And, yes, bamboo shoots, tapioca leaves and wild ferns are our favourite foods. And, I'm still living in the longhouse together with my parents, siblings and my grandparents. Unfortunately, our forest (at my place) has gone. The Penan Tribe is like our siblings. We do respect each other as there is no more tribal war or headhunting (headhunting was practised by our Iban ancestors hundreds of years ago and it's not allowed anymore). Sending love and peace to every tribes in Sarawak🤍Good job Mr Treza💙
What will your family do with out the forest to suplement your needs? Especially with the lack of government help.
@@fairwitness7473 Thankfully, my grandfather owned small piece of land where my family can grow some vegetables and black pepper. But, vegetables alone from the farm were not enough for our daily food (due to weather), so, we need to pick some bamboo shoots or wild ferns from the remaining forest. Sometimes, my father and my uncle going for wildboar hunting or going to catch fishes from the river. We do have small town to get some groceries but, we cannot go often because of the transportation matter. We need to pay others that have vehicles to go to the town. And the groceries at the town were quite expensive too. That's why we cannot go often to the town.

@@jordanhyeon9703 But Iban did practice headhunting on Penan. 😨
It is so fascinating to see someone from this video come and comment on it. I wish you great life and love.
maybe one of the most empathic, informative and authentic documentaries I have ever seen!
no sensationalism. no sentimentalism, no folklorism, a beautiful narration a decent commenting
a silent and often lakonic camera catching and noticing the the most miraculous details "by the way"...
Thank you!
Merci beaucoup
"Rafa" Treza and Team!
What you do is very, very important!
Agree. Well done.
I was hesitant to watch this at first, but the comment about the German documentaries drew me in. Now I’m sad it’s over, time just flew by. I wish I were as as lucky as you, seeing, smelling, touching things I’ll never ever see, experiencing this very special way of life PLUS being able to make a wonderful documentary. Truly captivating. Thank you for sharing this with us. I wonder if Borneo is ever going to come back around. I’ve had a friend who went there and came back rather disappointed, since there were no more trees, just along the rivers as „cover“.
Very, very well done. Thank you so much. This was extremely interesting. I appreciate your dedication and concern! Awesome!
Rafa, I combat the depressive smoke of the California wildfires by listening to your soothing voice at bedtime & by watching your beautifully perfected documentaries by day. The people of Borneo give me strength. I look forward to all your work ever since I fell in love with your Cobra Gypsies film & soundtrack. May the hedge of protection remain around you & the natives you befriend❤️🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼 Thank you!!!!!

This is what I can watch the whole day without getting bored. Thanks for such a beautiful video may u keep on the good and make more video ❤❤❤❤❤
Extraordinary film Raphael. Beautiful Flora, Fauna and Funga. The Penan people were stunning and their knowledge and earth skill superb. Thanks for posting the film.
Jim Rodgers
Just happen to come across your documentary. Loved it and the soundtrack is magical❤
You deserve a lot more recognition. This is one of the best documentaries Ive watched. Loved the music, the production quality and most importantly the way you managed to capture their strength, pride and helplessness to the logging corporations. I love this so much.
An absolutely stunning and hypnotic film Raphael! This is extraordinary work. And the soundtrack is breathtaking - it compliments the footage really well. Take a bow sir 💪🙏☀️
Absolutely agree with your words. I stumbled upon this and am stunned at how good it is. Please make more Raphael.
This is beautiful Raphael you’re a true walking camera thank you
Raphael, please make more videos, well, better say DOCUMENTARYS , yours are better than many BBC or NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC films. You are astonishingly good, congratulations. God bless you.
I'm one of the tribe called "Bidayuh Sta'ang" from Sarawak and basically Penan is a cousin of our tribe ... And we gave so many Respect to each other tribes especially Penan's Tribe of one of the most tribe that still live and protect the wildlife of the Rainforest... And as we Sarawakian tribes are so happy to see this documented and show to the whole world about one of the Sarawak's Tribe... Big Up!
Edited : Oh about that thing you called the food made from Tapioca Flour and taste like water we usually called it "Sagu/Sago"
Thts rght ,anyway i am from sabah,dayak mix dusun liwan
Imagine get a reputation as the predator for a weekend I would pay millions on put it on Instagram, collecting 100 loggers skulls 1 v 100 it should be called. Imagine people being scared to come into the woods to cut down trees with one can dream
A beautiful and moving film, Raphael. I spent two months working in Sabah/Brunei Bay back in 1978. It was the most magical place I had ever visited. The rainforest met the mangroves close to the shoreline. The wildlife was plentiful and the birds were colourful and noisy. I went back 30 years later and much of it had gone, replaced by palm tree plantations. The only sound breaking the silence was a pump sending palm oil to a loading terminal on a riverbank. It was a sad and depressing experience.
absolutely amazing. best doc ive ever seen
truly mindblowing. Amazing work, thank you so much for that. What a way to start 2024.
I was a Royal Marine in the sixties and went to Borneo 4 times during the Confrontation over a period of two and a half years. I can say with total truth that it was the best time of my life. I loved the Jungle, the People, the way of life and the magic of it all. We lived with the various tribes in Longhouses and learned so much. It's a very sad disaster to see everything especially Jungle and the culture being destroyed by greed. In years to come it will be seen to be the ecological mistake that changed not just the Island of Borneo but the World.
I hear you Peter. I lived on various islands in Indonesia for 10 years. But Borneo was especially astounding! Arent we lucky to have these memories? Though they are exquisite enough to be called "haunting" even ... It is heartbreaking what is happening. Last visit, you could see the jungle burning from the airplane for 30 minutes straight (large circles of flame). There has been a moratorium on the expansion of palm oil since 2015 but the forest will disappear anyway. Government apathy is part of it, but the people are also warrior-like in defending their rights to make a living. And how can you argue against that?? The conundrum forces one to pick sides -- people or nature??? -- a false dichotomy. I am in University now to learn more, especially about palm oil. Best from Canada!
Yeah, that's why your beloved bullying country, got their mafia to produce the killer oil?
As an Argyll, I also served in Sarawak during the confrontation. The Penan shown in this video are so different from the Penan of the early 1960s. In the 60s the Penan did not live in shelters,nor did they wear anything but the loin cloth. they roughed it. I returned in 2008, on an all our yesterdays trip. I visited Bario, where to a certain degree the Kelabit have controlled the skullduggery of the Government.The penan around Bario have taken over a disused kelabit longhouse , I watched them come and go, still armed with their blowpipes, still hunter gatherers.
I also visited the Selakit in Biawak, their longhouse was surrounded by Palm oil, there longhouse was decrepit, they obviously didn't share in the Palm Oil wealth created at the peoples loss. Where it was commonplace to see the Orang Utan and the other wildlife, the Biawak area was devoid of all that.2008.
my dad served in Borneo with NZSAS in the late 60s before he did 3 tours in veitnam he always said he loved Borneo, he brought home a drink canister n a blow dart arrow holder made by villagers he spent time with...
Britishers being britishers, always intervening in other countries. Ahh what can we expect from these colonizers.
I can see so much hard work, time, and dedication that went into this project. I can't imagine how much you've worked on this behind the scenes. Thank you so much for such an eye-opening and beautiful documentary.
This is by far one of if not the best documentaries I have seen on youTube.
I enjoy every part of this wonderful documentary. Thank you
Thank you for your time, effort and adventurous spirit to show us this beauty and yet also tragedy.
This documentaries are first class. So amazing!
I like your call sign and I love that you hide your face I want to do that sometimes.
@@followingthespaceforce7297 ......what?
You bet you Do.....
@@followingthespaceforce7297 still want that face mask on.
Thank you for the Movie!! You are such a talented film maker. So much effort and so much were conveyed. Watching it makes me feel that I was there with them too, seeing how Panan living in harmony with the nature with their extensive knowledge. What a beautiful Documentary!
I was born and brought up in Brunei. Love every bit of that country. Love from Somerset, UK
Life there is so peacefull.....No bills,no instagram,twitter,facebook...just you and the sound of nature.
Life is also very hard. Just watch some jungle survival videos about what it takes to stay alive from exposure, sickness, starvation and predators. These people don't have it easy, plus their life expectancy sucks. The fact they tend to embrace modern culture and technology is proof that their traditional way of life is not all rainbows and unicorns.
well i prefer village life than in deep forest
And annoying bugs
Ignorrant
Live there
Raphael this was the most riveting exceptional pure documentary I have ever seen on YT. I have been educated, saddened and cheered for the strength resilience and fortitude of these people. When I hear people complaining, they should all watch videos like this and maybe they will appreciate their circumstances no matter how limited. Magnificent work. Congratulations!

Good work,keep it up Treza.
Beautiful documentary, thank you for sharing 🙏
I watched the Cobra Gypsies and this back to back. The footage, music, history and story you’ve put together are simply amazing. So insightful and important. Thanks again for another amazing documentary. Fantastic.
The first time I watched this, I didn't realise how incredibly well you've done. Thank you for this
I got goose bumps from this documentary. what a production!
I was fortunate enough to travel to the interior of Borneo (Brunei and Sarawak) in 1963-64 visiting both Iban and Dayak longhouses. Some never to be forgotten memorable experiences before the commercial destruction of the forest.
Thank you for this beautiful documentary. Living in harmony with the nature in the nature--it is possible. No money needed.... The pure power of life is: just being present and respect what we give from the mother of nature. Wonderful people!
Beautiful documentary thank you! I had tears in my eyes for the most part mainly of happiness. I cannot believe that only 10% of the forest remains. How much knowledge have we already lost from these people and other tribes around the world!
Beautiful
What an Amazing Documentary ,
What an Amazing & Special People's ,
& You Raphael Treza are also A Hero
for keeping up the memory of Bruno Manser...
& The fight & right of these Natives & Tribes...
The story of GREED & EXPLOITATION repeats itself time and time again throughout all of creation.
It is truly heartbreaking to watch such purity and innocence come to an end.
Thank you for your hard work and efforts to gift us all with these unforgettable images of purity & innocence...
In such contrast to the world we call Civilized & Educated.
WoW! I'm totally amazed! Love and respect from Bangladesh 🇧🇩
God bless Borneo. Brilliant documentation. I'd watched from the start till end. From the neighborhood, Philippines.
Greeting Rapaheal :)..I from Sabah a Malaysian State next to Sarawak. I came from a Dusun ethnic. I was very touch to see your documentary in this video, and im agree with you that we should let this Penan people living the way they should be because if we change their way of living one day all their practice and culture will be instinct like my ethnic. Believe it or not most youngsters nowadays cannot even speak to their mother tongue language let alone to explain their calture in detail. I wish that this Penan people will be seeing a brighter life in the future. One more thing, I WISH PEOPLE ESPECIALLY MALAYSIAN SHOULD STOP DEFORESTATION NOW, POLLUTION AND GLOBAL WARMING IS VERY DANGEROUS. I been working as an Outdoor Activity Instructor so i know what is happening to our jungle, some time it even better to live in the jungle rather than a busy City full with people who only think how to make more money. Anyway thanks bro Rapa! I really appreciate this video.. Ponsikou (Thanks You)
