In “Balan the Blowpipe Maker,” filmmaker Ross Harrison introduces viewers to an indigenous Malaysian elder and craftsman. "Only a few elders of Borneo’s Penan tribe still know how to make their unique hunting tool, the blowpipe. Balan is the last person in his village who practices the craft," says Harrison.
This short video incorporates footage from Harrison’s 30-minute documentary "Sunset Over Selungo", which focuses on rain forest protection and land rights in Malaysian Borneo.

It saddens me that there are less than a handful of tribes that haven't been exposed to modernization. Human beings in general are the most greedy and ignorant species on the planet. We have refused to realize that there isn't just one way to live. And there is absolutely nothing wrong with being "different".

    • Happiness is relative to a person's situation. If a professional basketball player whose entire life is basketball gets his leg amputated, guess what, he's going to be very upset even though there are plenty of happy paraplegics. If a single mother of two gets evicted from her house and is now homeless on the streets, she's going to feel depressed even though there are content families halfway across the world who have never lived in a modern home and live off less than $3 a day.

  • Hope he managed to pass down his knowledge. The Penans love their rainforest, it is their home and their way of life. They find contentment living as nomads, they have done so for hundreds of years. New generations of Borneans are doing their best to remove corrupt governments that are selling off native customary rights lands and national parks as well as allowing illegal loggers the destroy the jungle. There are 3 countries that have 'jurisdiction' in Borneo which makes creating blanket policies for the whole island difficult ( Brunei, Malaysia and Indonesia). Many decades ago the use of the blowpipe was still very common among most of the tribes in Borneo. As a Kayan from the Apoh area (my parents are from Long Bedian and Long Bemang, respectively) we only have my great grandfathers' blowpipe as heirlooms. The practice started to die out when shotguns were introduced and there was a time the use was completely banned during the Japanese occupation during WWII. The Japanese feared the blowpipe and poison darts due to its stealthy nature.
