'I was reminded that this year marks 65 years of the Kaamatan celebration, as well as the first crowning of the Unduk Ngadau. This is a momentous milestone — 65 years of the Kaamatan Festival, a testament to the resilience, unity and vibrant cultural heritage of our community. As we rejoice in this historic celebration, we also pay homage to the Unduk Ngadau, a symbol of our traditions, beauty and the spirit of our people,' he said. He added that the theme for this year's celebration, 'Kaamatan for All,' resonates deeply with our collective desire to foster inclusivity, understanding, and unity among all members of our society. 'It reminds us that our cultural heritage is a precious legacy to be cherished and shared by everyone, regardless of background or age,' said Jeffrey. 'It is a call to ensure that the beauty of our traditions continues to thrive and inspire future generations,' he added. As the chairman of the Main Organising Committee, he said he is proud of the dedication and effort that have gone into making this year's Kaamatan a memorable event. 'Today, as we watch the performance of the Unduk Ngadau wearing the ethnic-inspired evening dress, let us not only celebrate her beauty and grace, but also recognise her as a custodian of our cultural identity and a beacon of hope for our community's bright future. 'Let us use this occasion to reaffirm our commitment to preserving our customs, embracing diversity, and uniting as one community under the banner of our shared heritage. The Unduk Ngadau has indeed come a long way to where it is today.' The Unduk Ngadau CAN produce short videos on culture, agro-tourism and nature that help promote our cultural identity, agro-tourism, and natural beauty, he said. 'The Unduks are influencers in their own fields, not only promoting their own products but also generating income from them.'
