KAPITAN Teo Hee Tong has a lot of friends. Most of his friends would travel in longboats from the longhouses in the upper reaches of the Rajang River to the interior of Belaga just to celebrate Chinese New Year with him or be there whenever he is in need of good company.
Language is also never a barrier for this 75-year-old as he is fluent in Kayan, Kenyah, Punan and Iban.
