The homeland of the Asmat tribe consists of an estimated area of 10,000 square miles and comprises the rugged and isolated southern coast of Irian Jaya. They were previously notorious as head-hunters and cannibals but now the Asmat people are known for their exceptional skill in the art of woodcarving. The photo below shows the traditional costume for the Irian people. </span></div><br /><p align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxzqHrwpd8kmUh02DeMPuvMLOmYB4HOhJQsfMm2QIRXMI3k7BWh5uu5rNOHxmhYdwcUiWGkbU_ISTG1JjHD45f4QtGwV8blsTTloBxZ2EffHjoGvtiegsXUbg6B6tviEdQC2d65Xcdo0U/s1600-h/Irian.JPG"><span style="font-family:georgia;color:#000000;"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5396909955631016642" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxzqHrwpd8kmUh02DeMPuvMLOmYB4HOhJQsfMm2QIRXMI3k7BWh5uu5rNOHxmhYdwcUiWGkbU_ISTG1JjHD45f4QtGwV8blsTTloBxZ2EffHjoGvtiegsXUbg6B6tviEdQC2d65Xcdo0U/s320/Irian.JPG" /></span></a><strong><span style="font-family:georgia;color:#000000;">Siew Ee and Janis</span></strong></p><p align="justify"><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-family:georgia;"><strong><u>Personal Reflections</u></strong><br /><br />It was a few months back when we were having a hard time thinking which elective module we should take. We heard a lot of rumours spreading around that Bahasa Indonesia language is a definitely must take module. And true enough, we really love this module. We can learn this language at an accelerated pace and yet enjoy the interactions with our classmates and Ibus in class. This project has allowed us to learn so much about traditional costumes in Indonesia. The project D-day has been a big exposure for all of us. We truly wish to thank all the Ibus in charged of us for this project: Ibu Idrianti, Ibu Lucia and Ibu Johanna. Love ya all. =)<br /><br /></span></span></p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-Nes453oR3mS3XrKQKQpU_VsCBRaaayuOOga5NqMvwN8wqosck3zuYIiA9WkKx7_eJNUvTmGkskq50nyIabHWFYRiGNK6pgLdentHvaxipzazArJ1X3GSavU6DDjHf8Wf9nR04Hj6EBI/s1600-h/DSCF8062.JPG"><span style="font-family:georgia;color:#000000;"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5396913775074500610" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-Nes453oR3mS3XrKQKQpU_VsCBRaaayuOOga5NqMvwN8wqosck3zuYIiA9WkKx7_eJNUvTmGkskq50nyIabHWFYRiGNK6pgLdentHvaxipzazArJ1X3GSavU6DDjHf8Wf9nR04Hj6EBI/s320/DSCF8062.JPG" /></span></a><span style="font-family:georgia;color:#000000;"> <strong>Ibu Johanna & Ibu Indrianti</strong> </span><p align="justify"><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-family:georgia;"><strong><u>Behind the scenes</u></strong><br /><br /></span></span></p><span style="font-family:georgia;color:#000000;"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5396913817420024738" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_nUMqsX3zmczUno-4Xz1vLCSP7gIR6wLakP5EGpn-kZwNlLcyXOuRj1PoBdegtRClDuIDVs8V6OMLDq5L5gDyy4XP8NZdxzqv56NjqhNE5yTUpLRmyklzJIpAwK0csGKdu0ywrpmuYk8/s320/DSCF8007.JPG" /> Ibu Johanna dolling up Lavrina before the D-day concert.<br /></span><p align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIwbB5psrlu0PPdIBLKHGt2h441rJgJF9za-bb8K9mWDy5bQJY_C7pb7jIcY4kOAlBLIEPtNtb_-zCfIkZyK2rjz4-qFWtXPn1WrD0pLSXvR8Ay6w0V2Z9lLEGzSeb7FuHT53PtUkKBdk/s1600-h/DSCF8015.JPG"><span style="font-family:georgia;color:#000000;"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5396913790283733042" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIwbB5psrlu0PPdIBLKHGt2h441rJgJF9za-bb8K9mWDy5bQJY_C7pb7jIcY4kOAlBLIEPtNtb_-zCfIkZyK2rjz4-qFWtXPn1WrD0pLSXvR8Ay6w0V2Z9lLEGzSeb7FuHT53PtUkKBdk/s320/DSCF8015.JPG" /></span></a><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-family:georgia;"> Our MCs!
