Description

"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"."
