Jungle House

This is the typical structural layout of a jungle house, make of small timber logs obtained from the forest. By using overlapping palm (nippah) leaves as roof and walls, a simple attap house is formed.
It won't last long, but the Native people in the interior can stay for a while, then move again.
Nowadays, this type of house is used for temporary shed in the farm and for some of the very very poor people.
