The Bajau- Sea Gypsies
Bajaus
are a colorful, festive and musical people.
Photographing People and culture of Asia
during the Regatta Lepa Festival in Semporna, Sabah.
|
| |
The Bajau have been a
nomadic, seafaring people for most of their history. Many still
practice that same lifestyle to this day, which explains why they are
still commonly called "sea gypsies." They chart particularly the waters
of the Sulu Sea,off the southwestern coast of the Philippines, and the
various seas that surround the Indonesian island of Sulawesi. They come
ashore only to bury the deceased and to live temporarily while making
new boats called the " Lepa ". I had the chance to visit Semporna in the
eastern town of Sabah (Malaysian Borneo) for the Regatta Lepa Festival
in April 2008. More photos and stories about the Bajaus and other tribes
in the May's issue of Asian Geographic Magazine. |
