SEMENYIH POLLS | Kampung Kachau Dalam is among 10 Orang Asli villages in the state constituency.
| The Orang Asli settlement in Kampung Kachau Dalam is only 15 km from Semenyih town, but the journey takes so long as it is only accessible through a dirt road.
Another concern among the Orang Asli community there, is on the status of the land as it has yet to be gazetted as Orang Asli native land, despite them having occupied the area for nearly 84 years. "We hope the authorities would act on our problems, the most urgent of which is the need for a tarred road. The only accessible road that we have is the dirt road and and when it rains, it cannot be used and we are cut off from the outside world.On the land status, Matzee said they had raised the matter to the authority for it to be gazetted as Orang Asli native land.
We are worried because we are made to understand that the Area Farmers Organisation is acquiring the land,” he added.“There is the Semenyih Health Clinic, but it is so far and the medical check-up schedules are also irregular. Sometimes it is once a month and sometimes once a week.
