From 4–9 March, 2023, 21 volunteers worked alongside the villagers to install a 10kW mini-hydro system, bringing electricity to 27 households.
Thank you to everyone who supported this project—from fundraising to the final installation. Special thanks to A+ WORKS of ART for channeling 100% of the contributions from the Cahaya Kehidupan artwork, Ilham Gallery for providing the exhibition space, and LightUp Borneo for preparing the hydro materials.
Thanks also to The Star (online) for helping spread the word, the KITA – Sabah Celebrating Diversity documentary team for capturing the process, and the bands and organizations, including NO GOOD, Goethe-Institut Malaysia, and Sabah Tattoo Association, who supported the fundraising and creative work.
Finally, our deepest gratitude to all volunteers and the villagers of Kampung Penulangon who worked together to make this project possible.
Light is Life.
