Kalaka
The Kalaka Language Repository at Universiti Malaysia Sarawak (UNIMAS) is a significant initiative aimed at preserving and studying Malaysia's linguistic diversity. It focuses on documenting and analyzing lesser-resourced languages, particularly those spoken in Sarawak. The repository serves as a comprehensive digital map and resource for understanding the geographical distribution and linguistic characteristics of languages within the region.
