One of the Borneo island main culture's are the Banjar, the other are Dayaks. Different from Dayak, all of the Banjar tribes live near the river. So, they develop a river based cultures. River are important natural source for the people of Banjar. It is different from Java's culture who seems to view river as a garbage trash and something that must be avoided (the river in Java arent steadily watered, and sometimes get a disaster for the locals due the sudden wave while in Borneo, rivers are steadily watered. The water height have no big different each season, and the river give so much benefit to Banjar people.

The pictures show the local transportation called "kelotok". People in Banjar used these kind of transportation along with the road. It is nice to ride it ^^
