The meeting between representatives of the Orang Asli community and Deputy Prime Minister Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi augurs well for the group in terms of development, infrastructure and economy.
“We ask for the construction of an integrated transportation route to be expedited and received a response from the Deputy Prime Minister who wants the project to commence in January, which is two months earlier than the original date,” Bidi said, adding that they will no longer face any problems, especially during the rainy season once the project is completed.
The village chief of Kampung Merlong in Kuala Betis, Ibrahim Marijah, 66, said he took the opportunity to request a solution to the water problem plaguing villagers living in the interiors, adding that he hoped the meeting would be a starting point for positive changes. “So, I hope the application to build a water supply system for the Orang Asli community especially those living in the Kuala Betis resettlement and the interiors who need water can be speeded up,” he said.
