Kayan
The Kayan people are an indigenous tribe from the island of Borneo, both in Sarawak, Malaysia and Kalimantan, Indonesia. Categorised as a part of the Dayak people, they are similar to their neighbours, the Kenyah people, with which they are grouped together with the Bahau people under the Apo Kayan people group. The Bornean Kayan are distinct from, and not to be confused with the Kayan people of Myanmar.
