Most of the younger generations are live in city, they study in university and most of them are get a high pay job such as doctor, lawyer, lecturer, and so on. Their life is better compare with their ancients.
Yet, they still practiced their traditional dance, music, food, and living style until today.
According to their history, the music is for blessing and well-going. When their husbands went to hunting and not come home before day end, all the wives will gather in a house and they will start dancing and singing for praying the safety of their husbands. If someone felt in sick, they will go to the person house to dance and sing. In their belief, after the singing and dancing the person who felt in sick can get well soon.
