There is one saying goes, when rain is stop. The sun will shine and rainbow will be yours. So it keep raining and we are anticipating the rainbow soon.
But, the situation won't burn down the spirit of kaamatan and unduk Ngadau fever. Everyone changing their profile picture with ethnic cloth, throwing back unduk Ngadau pictures/ handcraft. There is even some online competition for this kaamatan pageant/singing contest.
The question: Is kaamatan unduk Ngadau/sugandoi a cultural entertaining show or just merely a way to the remembrance of the paddy spirit while celebrating the victory of harvesting a good yield of crops.
My personal thoughts about this is harvesting festival event are cultural entertaining show whereby peoples are preparing for this to compete and celebrate but at the same time, people are embracing the culture of the ethnicity where they gathered in the hall and meet some relatives supporting their favourite contestant. It's pretty much both educational and entertaining show event.
Somehow, these event won't exceptional to the negativity around the corner. How we cope these negativity while building up our personalities by not responding with them.
