We have right to preserve our Standard Bidayuh language in this competitive world from becoming extinct. We are responsible to keep Bidayuh language alive and effort to preserve,conserve and popularise it.

The Bidayuh words references have been compiled by me from many sources, including internet searches, news and also from our fellow Bidayuh elders from Mentu,Serian and also from our oversea friends.
