Needs a subsection on largest cities and towns

Latest comment: 3 years ago2 comments1 person in discussion

This article lacks information on largest cities and towns. Perhaps a description could be added to the Demographics section. cmɢʟee⎆τaʟκ 10:13, 24 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

Lundayeh on the demographics section

Latest comment: 3 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

The Demographics subsection has provided a section for the major ethnic groups in the respected territories. With more than 200 ethnic groups residing in Borneo, it is rather impossible to list all of the tribes of Borneo,.

However, the Lun Bawang/Lundayeh are already represented in the subsection, based on the Kalimantan definition - the group categorised under Dayak people, a similar classification in Sarawak where they are officially defined under the Orang Ulu group. Their population in Sabah is numbered around 6,941 (which only constituted 0.2% of the 3,418,785 Sabahan people), while in Brunei they are numbered around 1110 (0.2% of the 460,345 Bruneians).
