“Every policy related to land and forest management should be a mutual topic, which we, Dayak people, can discuss on a regular basis. These topics should not be hidden or made exclusive to certain groups, as their results will greatly determine the future of the Dayak people.”
Dayak wisdom says humans are equal to nature. Putting ourselves in this position of not being superior to the environment creates harmony, where we won’t take and exploit resources with greed. Instead, take what you need, and always give back. Honor nature with respect and protect it by living sustainably. Nature is way bigger than us but we tend to feel we are more powerful.
