Not able to go to sea during the MCO, villagers have no income and have little access to personal sanitation products.

Unlike some of their counterparts who have been able to sustain themselves by foraging the forest, the Mah Meri people in Kampung Orang Asli Pulau Indah have had to depend on handouts during the movement control order .

Most villagers are fisherfolk who have not been allowed to go out to sea since March 18 and thus have no income to feed their families.
