Hello, everyone.
Tulang is from West Borneo, particularly Sintang. 
Sintang is a one of regencies in West Borneo. 
At this time, tulang would like to tell you about one of populer superstitions in tulang's city. 
It is Posek and Kampunan.

In Borneo, if someone offers some food or drink, at least you have to touch that food or drink.
Even you do not like that food and do not want to it, you have to touch that food. 
Touching that food or drink is named ‘Posek’. 
Actually, posek is not just can do by touching the food but maybe you can taste that food, just eating that food a litle bit. 
Because if you do not do it, you will get a bad luck or an accident. 
A bad luck or an accident because of Posek is named ‘Kampunan’.
Okay, That's all which tulang can share at this time.
