Malaysian Bar again urges to authorities to recognise Orang Asli’s right to customary land

He added that both federal and state governments also owed a duty to the Orang Asli to protect their welfare. “Given the special position of the Orang Asli under the Federal Constitution, the continued failure of the Federal and State Governments to protect and provide for marginalised Orang Asli can only be described as deplorable,” he said in a statement here.
