Background Information

1. Palm Leaf Origami

Palm Leaf Origami is known as the Flowers of the spirits or Bunga Moyang to the Mah

Meri indigenous tribe of Malaysia.

2. Mah Meri Cone

Mah Meri Cone is made from either bamboo or mangrove timber wrap with palm leaf

origami in a shape of a snake.

3. Mah Meri tribe

Discovered by the British in late nineteen century while opening land for a plantation,

Edward Valentine Carey used the services of the Mah Meri to clear the land for his

plantation. Now famed for the spiritual mangrove sculpturing, leaf origami, rituals

and practices, they lived in about 10 different villages in Selangor. Their culture and

religion predates most of our social system. The total population of Mah Meri in

Malaysia is 4,200.
