Default Keris Bugis

This keris is great pusaka. We had to sell this four years ago to pay for medical for our father. Later we learn that it now is in museum in Belanda. Too bad for us, but good that many people can see it and learn about Bugis culture.

Did you know that we were famous pirates and the boogeyman comes from fear of Bugis pirates. We have some very old Bugis pirate sword we will put here some time.

For big picture

Default Introduction...

Hi Mudi,

Maybe you could give us a brief introduction about yourself.
Who you are? Your family history? Your great pusaka history?
And stuff like that. It would be nice to hear your stories...
