"Penans - The Vanishing Nomads of Borneo", a photo essay on the Penans that received critical acclaim -
Lau is an unobtrusive photographer. His years of releasing the shutter in the far-flung interior of Sarawak have made him an acute social observer whose subjects seem to respect him as he does them. Hence, the sense of empathy, as one looks at the pictures, is all the greater".
The Far Eastern Economic Review
"An entrancing collection of photographs of the Sarawak Penan people taken over the last 20 years by Dennis Lau, an award winning photographer.....the pictures speak mostly loudly in and for themselves".
