In June, a ‘mysterious’ illness was reported to have caused the deaths of 15 Orang Asli villagers from Kg Kuala Koh, Gua Musang.
While the cause of deaths of the three from the village has been identified as measles, the full post-mortem results on the other 12 have yet to be revealed. This was not the first time Chow had made this claim, having also done so in July when he asked for the post-mortem results on the 12 over doubts that measles was solely to blame.
Lee said his ministry’s screening of villagers did not indicate any symptoms of manganese poisoning, such as abnormal behaviour or movements.
