"Batak Lampong" is a traditional sport of the Iban community in Sarawak. The direct translation of the game is "pull wood" where "batak" means pull while "lampong" refers to a light and medium length piece of wood. It is a traditional sport where two persons sit flat on the ground to compete by pulling on the wood. The obvious winner would be the one able to pull the piece of wood away from the opponent causing the looser to be pulled into an awkward position.
