Major commercial enterprises, especially indiscriminate logging, is the enemy of the Orang Asli's environment and habitat.
We are a group of doctors who served the Jabatan Hal Ehwal Orang Asli , stationed at Hospital JHEO, at Batu 6 Jalan Gombak in the late Seventies.
The policy of JHEOA, then, was clear: to help the aboriginal people in every way, and that included providing good health care and sanitation. It was a fulfilling, satisfying and even adventurous time for all of us in the medical and dental team, and paramedical team and staff, who were mainly the Orang Asli themselves.
Traditionally, their trade and source of income was the seemingly endless supply of bamboo then. Some Orang Asli were involved with tin ore. If we can protect the tigers, pangolins and other important dying species, including birds, what more precious human lives in the interior jungles of Malaysia. We must safeguard and protect our helpless and perishing Orang Asli tribes.
We are confident that the present new government will look after the Orang Asli, and give “Hope” to them and generations to come.
