Two students from Djarragun College in Queensland, perform the traditional “Maumatang” War Dance with bows and arrows from Boigu Island, just off the Papua New Guinea coast in the Top Western Torres Strait Islands, followed by a “Silent Dance” (accompanied by drumming) from Saibai Island. They perform in the Abu Dhabi residence of the Ambassador of the United Arab Emirates to Australia!
