Tales from the Nusantara

Tales from the Nusantara


Get ready to immerse yourself in the story of Dayang Petera, as told by the Iban people of Borneo.

 

In this tale, Dayang Petera embarks on a journey far away from her family and discovers rice for the first time in the home of Ini Raja Pipit. She is enchanted by its taste but finds herself in a sticky situation after challenging Ini Raja Pipit’s age-old way of preparing the dish 

Gain inspiration from Iban crafts and create your own miniature rice basket using paper! 

This programme is organised in collaboration with Our Tampines Hub.
