Interviewed by EcoKnights Fadly Abach and filmed by Chris Leow, Green Alert features an up, close and personal look at the Sape, a traditional lute of many of the Orang Ulu or "upriver people", who live in the longhouses that line the rivers of Central Borneo. Sapes are carved from a single bole of wood, with many modern instruments reaching over a metre in length. Sapes are still being made in Borneo, and modern innovations like electric sapes are common.
