A quieter Gawai for Sarawakians this year


Low key celebration: Alicia and Raydilla (below) say they will be celebrating Gawai on a smaller scale as they won’t be returning home.

KUCHING: This coming Gawai will be the first time Alicia Sebli will not be celebrating the harvest festival with her family.

With restrictions on inter-district travel and house-to-house visits in Sarawak, she will mark the occasion with her housemates here instead of going back to her longhouse in Jaong, Sri Aman.
