"The people earn their common-noun label "sea-gypsies" due to their way of life of living in wooden boats (the kabang) and temporary huts, and foraging for food. The fish they catch from the sea using nets are for their own consumption, and mostly for the purpose of bartering for other goods in the local markets. Hogan writing in 1972 gives an interesting account of the Moken and Moklen, as he does for the Urak Lawoi'."

Malay texts tell of...

"Malay texts tell of the existence of suku or tribes. Each suku is identified with a batin or a penghulu, who got into the good books of the Sultan and was awarded with a maritime region out of which he could build his authority and wealth. Hence, a penghulu or a batin was identified with a region, no matter how small it was. So the highest level was occupied by the chiefs, some of whom bore the title of Raja, or Tok (short form of Datuk or Datu)"

The question of whether the Orang Asli were the first...

"The question of whether the Orang Asli were the first to step foot on the Malay Peninsula has been a moot point among scholars of the history of the peninsula. However, as explained in Chapter 1, there is good reason for retaining the term in Malaysia. As linguistics, Ferdinand de Saussure, which says that language is arbitrary and conventional, and from there to a later theory which says that language is relative, never absolute. On the coining of the term Orang Asli, we believe it was done in full consciousness with the objective of making the people bond with the other Bumiputra."

The Land Orang Asli...

"The Land Orang Asli consisting only of the Jakun, the Kanak and the Temuan, are found only in the Malay Peninsula. It has been the tradition among scholars when writing about them to place them in the umbrella group of the Malayan aborigines, who are divided into the three categories of Negrito, Senoi and Proto-Malays. The last category is used to differentiate them from the other Malays (who are given the label "Deutero-Malays")."

"Orang Asli" is a term used only...

""Orang Asli" is a term used only in Malaysia to refer to the aborigines. In Malaysia's view they are an integral part of the peoples of Malaysia, just like the other indigenous (Bumiputra) groups (Figure 1.1), and if there are orang Melayu, orang Iban, orang Kadazandusun etc., so there are Orang Asli. The only difference is that both the components in the lexical item Orang Asli have to be written with uppercase 'O' and 'A', and Asli (an adjective) cannot stand on its own as a label to a group of people. The grammatical cohesion of these two components in conveying a specific meaning is so tight that they have to be given equal treatment in graphic presentation."

Conditions have changed...

"Conditions have changed since the last decades of the 20th century. There are no hunters and gatherers any more. The people can choose to stay put in the jungle areas where they used to live, or to re-locate to housing areas outside their erstwhile natural environments, such that they are closer to the other communities, such as the Malays and the Chinese. Either way, houses are built for them by the government through the Department of Orang Asli Affairs."

Given our understanding of the origin of the word sakai...

"Given our understanding of the origin of the word sakai as outlined above, we are not able to agree with Couillard's opinion that the word has its source in Sanskrit sakhi with the meaning "friend, companion, comrade" (quoted from Dentan et al., p. 52) The Sanskrit word and its meaning is correct, but it is unlikely that it had been borrowed by Malay speakers into their language to convey a meaning which is already found in a number of native words such as "kawan, rakan, teman, saingan"."

The term Bumiputra in...

"The term Bumiputra in the Malaysian sense can be translated into "indigenous" or "native". In the figure above, the Orang Asli are indigenous people together with Malays and the Non-Malay Bumiputera. At the same time, there is also the sense given to the term "indigenous peoples", who are defined as "a special kind of ethnic minority" (in Maybury-Lewis and MacDonald, in Denton at al., 1997, p. viii) - a definition not in line with that given in the Oxford Dictionary quoted above which gives indigenous as equivalent to native."

Orang Asli (original people) is...

"Orang Asli (original people) is a Malay term currently in use for small ethnolinguistic groups living on mainland Malay Peninsula and the islands around it. It is a direct translation of the English word aborigines, but this label was strictly used by the British to refer only to those living on the mainland. Those living in the islands and roamed the seas were seen as a separate group and were called "sea-people" or "sea-gypsies"."
