This website was created by SUTD students for the upcoming Banjar Exhibition at the Malay Heritage Centre. It aims to take on the role of a Banjarese Dalang, retelling a facet of the illustrious Banjarese history in an interactive manner.
The story focuses on the diamond industry in Banjarmasin in the 1800s, both on the mining process and the significance of its trade. The story also briefly touches on other topics such as the Banjarese War.
