Title

Semai society is certainly no longer...

Description

"Semai society is certainly no longer the fully 'traditional' society that the elders remember it to be. However, there are more reasons than the mythical defiance of Semai males like the bean-pod son in the story that have caused changes in the Semai natural order of things. Semai no longer live in relative isolation. On the contrary, they continue to be coerced into the modern economy where money is the accepted medium of exchange."
