The Iban trackers were men brought in from a loyal tribe from the Sarawak province on the island of Borneo - the Iban people. Throughout the Malayan Emergency, the Ibans were the eyes and ears of the British forces in the jungle, their tracking skills being invaluable in helping to hunt down the insurgents. However, apart from being good trackers, the Ibans were better known for another one of their habits, that of headhunting.
