As the political scene changed, it grew progressively more difficult for the communists to operate. This led to Bong opening talks with chief minister <a href="/wiki/Abdul_Rahman_Ya%27kub" title="Abdul Rahman Ya&#39;kub">Abdul Rahman Ya'kub</a> in 1973 and eventually signing an agreement with the government. Weng, who had moved to China in the mid-1960s but nonetheless retained control of the CCO, pushed for a continued armed insurrection against the government in spite of this agreement. The conflict continued mostly in the <a href="/wiki/Rajang_River" title="Rajang River">Rajang Delta</a> region but eventually ended when, on 17 October 1990, the NKCP signed a peace agreement with the Government of Sarawak.<sup id="cite_ref-95" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-95"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>91<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup><sup

Among the indigenous peoples of Sarawak, outside influences have led to many changes over time. The Iban tribal culture in Sarawak centred on the concept of the warrior and the ability to take heads from other tribes in battle. This practice, central as it was to the Iban people, was made illegal under James Brooke's rule and ultimately faded away although reminders of the practice are still seen in some long houses.<sup id="cite_ref-333" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-333"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>323<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> Two other tribal peoples of the Sarawak Highlands, the Kelabit and Lun Bawang, have seen fundamental changes to their ethnic identities as a direct result of their conversion to Christianity.
