Example
Selamat petang para hakim dan semua tetamu. Nama saya Ricky anak James berasal dari Kampong Bungai dipedalaman daerah Bau. Pejalananan ke kampong memgambil lebih kurang 1 jam dari bandar Kuching. Pada masa ini saya masih melanjutkan pelajaran peringkat degree di UNIMAS dalam bidang kesenian.
Pasti ramai kenal “Tuak” atau di Sabah dikenali sebagai “Lihing”. Minuman ini diberi semasa menyambut tetamu. Malangnya kini minuman ini disalah guna dan mengambil secara berlebihan sehingga mabuk. Satu kajian telah dijalankan di Universiti Malaysia Sabah dan di laporkan dalam JOURNAL OF TROPICAL BIOLOGY AND CONSERVATION, mendapati rice wine yang diperbuat daripada beras biasa mempunyai tahap antioxidant yang tinggi. Ini jelas menunjukkan bahawa tuak bagus jika diminum dengan tahapa yang dibenarkan.
Sekian, terima kasih
