The focus is on a rural Iban society in Betong Division which treats cock fighting and betting as a recreation and hobby. Here cock fights involve not only adults but teenagers. This inevitably conveys a negative value from adults to their children.This documentary will also highlight a social issue that arises from this gambling recreation, specifically the negative and positive aspects of cock fighting. The positive aspect of cock fighting is that it could widen a person’s circle of acquaintance among the spectators of the sport whereas the negative aspect is that gambling never brings any benefit to anyone’s home economy and brings bad influence on teenagers.
