My Kelabit family, they fought the Japanese.
Wayne Akup
Kallang's Father fought against the Japanese during the second world war. The late Akup received the
Pacific medal and King George Medal.
Later the
Kelabits used the parachutes to make into mosquito net. I could not breathe
sleeping inside; I had to put my head outside when I first went to Bario for
holidays.
