“From Borneo With Love: A Refined Sabah Showcase in KL’s Urban Playground”

-


Step into a world where Borneo’s soul meets metropolitan energy. In a striking new collaboration, SuperPark Malaysia joins forces with Kadaiku - Sabah Souvenirs & Handicrafts to unveil an elevated retail experience at Avenue K Shopping Mall. Nestled בתוך the vibrant playground of SuperPark on Level 4, just moments from Suria KLCC, the Kadaiku x SuperPark Malaysia merchandise kiosk is more than a stopover, it is a sensorial escape into Sabah.

Open daily from 10:00AM to 7:00PM, this refined concept is part of the evocative “Bring Sabah Home” initiative, a movement designed to transport the essence of East Malaysia into the urban rhythm of Kuala Lumpur. Here, every detail is curated with intention. Think artisanal elegance, cultural storytelling, and heritage woven into every piece.


Guests are invited to discover a collection that feels both intimate and iconic. From intricately handcrafted accessories and traditional beadwork to beautifully designed keepsakes, each item whispers stories of Sabah’s rich traditions. The experience deepens with a selection of indulgent local flavours, featuring Sabah Tea and the coveted Tenom Musang King Durian White Coffee, alongside delicately packaged treats and golden-hued locally sourced honey that make for exquisite gifts.

Adding a playful yet meaningful charm, the space is adorned with plush companions inspired by Sabah’s treasured wildlife, from the gentle orangutan to the distinctive proboscis monkey and the elusive sun bear. Complementing the collection are natural care essentials such as gamat and noni soaps, rooted in time-honored wellness traditions.

This is not merely retail, it is a celebration. A living showcase of Sabah’s culture, craftsmanship, and entrepreneurial brilliance. Through this collaboration, local artisans and SMEs are given a luminous platform, while visitors are offered an immersive journey that blends leisure with legacy.

At the Kadaiku x SuperPark Malaysia kiosk, Sabah is no longer a distant destination. It is a feeling, a flavour, a story you can take home. Right here, in the beating heart of Kuala Lumpur. 

Location: Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia

Tajau and Tradition: The Living Legacy of Siopon in a Murut Engagement

-
Image
It was a very fulfilling and insightful trip to Keningau recently, where the Angin family from Kg. Biah, Sook celebrated an important engagement ceremony. A family member was engaged to someone from outside the Murut community. Shonney Doney, who is of Murut and Dusun heritage, became engaged to a Sino-Kadazan young man from outside the Keningau district. What was truly special is that the Angin family prepared a cultural presentation featuring Siopon, a traditional homemade rice drink kept in jars. The beverage has been passed down for generations and is still practiced today. According to Liza Angin, Shonney’s aunt, the family has been making Siopon for many years, starting with their mother, Villine Lius, who is now 74 years old. Due to health reasons, she can no longer prepare it, so Liza and her siblings made the effort to learn and continue the family tradition. The Angin family According to Liza, long ago the drink was treated like coffee. Whenever visitors came to Murut hom...

Donggongon: The Heartbeat of Penampang’s Culture, Food and Tamu Tradition by Lorena Binisol

Image
Every Wednesday and Thursday, something special happens in Donggongon , the vibrant township at the heart of Penampang . The streets come alive as villagers, vendors and townsfolk gather for the beloved Tamu , a weekly market that has long been part of the community’s rhythm. For generations, the Tamu has been more than just a marketplace. It is a meeting ground where stories are exchanged, traditions are preserved, and the spirit of the community continues to thrive. At the moment, vendors are temporarily operating in the open space between shop lots while the new permanent Tamu building is under construction. The upcoming structure promises a more modern look, but many locals still remember the rustic charm of the old Tamu, where simple stalls created a warm and authentic village atmosphere. Despite the temporary setting, the market remains lively. Visitors can still find baskets filled with fresh vegetables, tropical fruits and produce brought in from nearby villages. Among the u...

A table of nine, a bottle of Lihing , and a journey of flavour discovery. The food pairing session turned out to be fun, engaging and full of delicious surprises. A quiet village workshop recently turned into a vibrant cultural classroom, where tradition flowed as richly as the rice wine itself. During a two-hour session held at Kg Pogun Tagazo, participants stepped into the heritage craft of making Lihing, the traditional rice wine of the Kadazan community. The experience was part of the Knowledge Transfer Initiative, a programme dedicated to preserving indigenous knowledge and passing it on to future generations. The evening began with a meaningful sharing about our culture, before diving into the story of Lihing and its cultural significance within the community. For the Kadazan people, Lihing is far more than a drink. It is a cultural heirloom. In earlier times when paddy farming sustained communities and harvests were abundant, surplus rice was transformed into this distinctive wi...
