Minister in the Prime Minister's Department Senator P. Waytha Moorthy said the Jakun tribe here had stressed on the need to gazette the village as an Orang Asli native village so they can enjoy basic amenities like paved roads, clean water and electricity.
"To ensure clean water supply, Jakoa will arrange for water tankers to provide water every week until a permanent piping project is built in the village. Arrangements will be made to set up a solar energy system for the villagers here until electricity is provided," he told reporters after a dialogue session with the villagers at Kampung Bukit Biru here today.
Waytha Moorthy said Kampung Bukit Biru is categorised as a “splinter village” as it consists of villagers from six settlements, namely Kampung Langkap Luar, Runchang, Segamat Kecil, Simpai, Tanah Runtuh and Sawah Batu. "We have some proposals and the Orang Asli have agreed with our suggestions so we will discuss with the agriculture and fisheries departments and Jakoa to ensure the plans become reality. The government will set aside the funds to assist the 22 families here to improve their livelihood.
