Patience. That single word has become the guiding principle for a group of Semai indigenous villagers in Ulu Bekor as they venture into stingless bee honey ( madu kelulut) production, despite facing uncertain returns since embarking on the project in 2024. The Ulu Bekor Indigenous Village Development and Security Committee's (JPKKOA) stingless bee farm project initially attracted 16 participants. However, as the months passed, many gradually abandoned the initiative, leaving only seven members who have remained committed to the venture. “Patience is essential because stingless bee farming takes time to generate income, and that is one of the biggest challenges. Many gave up halfway because the returns were slow to come. They moved on to other jobs or sought income elsewhere,” said project chairman Pandak Uda Bada in a recent interview with Bernama.
