Sea gypsy life and history Booklet

Update posted by Zubaidah Ramley

The sea gypsies are true masters of the sea, having roamed the waters of the ‘Coral Triangle’ between Malaysia, Philippines and Indonesia for many generations.

Even today, a sizeable population still live in wooden houseboats or stilt huts built atop coral reefs near Semporna’s islands.

It's a unique tradition. I want to capture their life in one single documentation both in hard copy and digital.
