GUA MUSANG: More than 2,000 residents of three Orang Asli settlements – Pos Belatim, Pos Bihai and Pos Gob – are living in fear as their villages have been encroached on by a wild elephant since last week.

Rahimi Dolah, 45, from Pos Belatim, said his vegetable plots in Kampung Chachuh had been destroyed several times by the elephant, and he fears the animal will go to another village.

“I am a little worried about the safety of the people here because the elephant is still roaming in this area, and it may move to other villages,” he said. “Last Monday, an elephant came to the village to eat the tapioca planted near the house. We managed to drive it away, but the animal returned to the garden during the night.

Meanwhile, Angah Along, 60, hopes that the Department of Orang Asli Development and Wildlife and National Parks Department could immediately address the matter.
