Wood of Life

Despite of the modern technology today, many fishermen still rely on the wooden boats not only for daily fishing but also a mode of transportation specially for those who lives on the remote communities surrounded by lakes and rivers. It also shows how important the trees are to their daily life and to their culture, from building their home, carving statue from log, cooking by firewood, making fence and many others. Since the early days, wood is one of the most important things on people's lives, throughout the ages, despite of the progress, woods and trees still plays an important rule to the community.
