It says past cases show courts recognise common law customary land rights of Orang Asli.

The Malaysian Bar has dismissed Perak Menteri Besar Ahmad Faizal Azumu’s assertion that the dismantling of a blockade put up by the Orang Asli community in Kampung Tasik Cunex in Gerik was lawful.

“Based on this reported statement , the menteri besar’s legal justification appears to be misinformed and is arguably misleading. As such, he said the statement by Ahmad Faizal raised concerns the Pakatan Harapan-run state government had failed to take into account if the affected indigenous community had acquired customary land rights via common law.

As such, he said the Bar Council called on the state government to suspend all logging activities in areas that potentially overlap with lands claimed to be Kampung Tasik Cunex Orang Asli customary lands and investigate the claim jointly with the community.the anti-logging blockade set up in Kampung Tasik Cunex after which authorities allegedly put up a signboard claiming that the land was government land and that trespassers would be prosecuted.
