Who they are

The Baram Kayan are an indigenous people settled along the riverbanks of the island of Borneo, primarily in the state of Sarawak. Traditionally organized around longhouses and known for their remarkable woodwork and music, they have a strong community bond. The Christian faith was widely embraced by the community, which today seeks to live out the gospel integrated with its rich cultural heritage.
