taritempurung
Tempurung is the local name for coconut shell. Many decorations are made from tempurung, and it is very useful in more remote places where the farmers use it for instance as bowls, plates, cups and even musical instruments, as shown in this dance. The important things is that the dance reflects the appreciation of the farmer's family for the harvest of the coconuts. It is usually performed by pairs of men and women.
