Communications and Multimedia Minister Datuk Seri Dr Salleh Said Keruak said Sabahans especially the Kadazandusun and Murut communities should be proud of the Pesta Kaamatan (Harvest Festival) celebrated each year as it is original and unique to Sabah.
Salleh said the Pesta Kaamatan was not just ‘made in Sabah’ as it was only found there and should also be celebrated as it had all sorts of positive messages for all people.
“We in Sabah must celebrate Pesta Kaamatan as it has certain objectives. We should be grateful for what we have because we work hard in this blessed land,” he said when launching the Pesta Kaamatan organised by the chairmen of Village Development and Security Committees of the Kadamaian state constituency in Kota Belud, Friday
