ERA BUDAYA is a group that formerly known as “SINOMPUVAN KOMUHAKAN KADAZAN” This group was established in 1959 by its founder OKK Joseph KK Gunsoi. Era Budaya, as the name implies, is a cultural organizational that’s managed by various people from different ages that have a deep passion for traditional cultures and values. Its main objective is to promote unity through preservation of traditional cultures and inculcating love for the cultures among the younger generations. As the spirit of traditional values grows, plus with the support from the government and private sectors, the name was changed to ERA BUDAYA( CULTURAL ERA) in 1991. By just hearing this group about that is to promote traditional cultures and also have the modern dance. Nowadays this group is run by Madam Claire Joseph (OKK Joseph KK Gunsoi daughter).
