This project, under the auspices of the National Commission for Culture and the Arts (of the Office of the President) focuses on the importance of Philippine arts and folk crafts.

10 SPAFA Journal Vol. 11 No. 2 Costumes and Textiles of Brunei:

Having long been a stopping point for visitors from diverse cultures in Asia, the Middle East and Europe, it is not surprising that the cultural tradition of Brunei Darussalam comprises various elements from these distant lands. The mode of dress, the arts, crafts, as well as architectural motifs, reflect aspects of Indian, Chinese, European and Islamic influence (which has been the most pervasive). Curator Bantong bin Antaran discusses the history of costumes and textiles in the country, and how they have been evolving.

The men in thought that many of the traditional garments the palace were all attired in cloth of gold and silk were destroyed as people were always on the run and hid themselves for safety in remote areas and jungles as their houses were destroyed. After World War Two, Western , such as shirts, trousers, socks, and hats, was introduced. This new style of clothing was slowly adopted by the locals and eventually became popular among the local 'elite'. Later, it became official government uniform. In the 1950s, Malay movies became popu- lar in Brunei Darussalam. The films were pro- duced in Singapore and Malaysia, and the story background was normally based on the Malay culture. Apparently, many Bruneians imitated fashions introduced in some of those movies. There is even less documentation for the development of clothing in the non-Malay indig- enous groups. However, the traditional costumes of these indigenous groups appeared to have undergone little change, and some are still worn during special occasions. For example, the Murut wear their traditional bark cloth during cultural stage performances; the Dusun and the Belait don their traditional dark coloured attired during rice ritual ceremonies; and the Kedayan are dressed in their traditional costumes during dance performances.

Similar attire is normally used when attending State functions. The woven fabrics can also be made into the attractive Baju , which is a type of dress that is rather costly to produce. The basis of any woven cloth is the crossing of two threads at right angles to each other. The vertical and horizontal threads are called warps and wefts respectively. Warp threads are fixed at each end of the loom, and have to be stronger than the wepts as they take the friction of the continual passing of the shuttle carrying the weft threads. Today's weavers, however, have de- signed more complicated and delicate techniques of weaving in order to produce a fine and beauti- fully patterned cloth; for example, they use different colours and types of thread, such as gold and silver. It is, of course, a very time- consuming process. Motif is a very important factor in making the kain tenunan more attractive. The Brunei traditional weavers used no less then fifty different types of patterns, which are given local names. The most common motifs found in kain tenunan are the puckor rebong (bamboo shoot) P3 : The floral motif
