Dayak ? hat for ID

Hi Colin, I reckognise the hat as being North Philippine (as I'm a collector of that region). The duo colored cords and the triangles of white beads etc all are endemic to the Gaddangtribe or actually most of these so-called 'salakot' are described as being Tinguian tribe.
I included a quite vague pic (unfort.) of a chief n wife wearing such a hat. Searching on the term 'salakot' you would find some more examples I think, though perhaps more dome-shaped examples with fine weaving.

Hope this helps.
