From cleaning to arranging of fish / shrimp,then to smoking and drying,all these long process brings hard work with patience. These are famous products of Belawai,they called ' sesar' (Malay language) , ' kupas ' (Melanau language) , 'dried shrimp' is what we ordinary called. The salted dried fish is 'ikan masin' .
Price of kupas is rm60 per kilogram.
