Description

"By the 17th century, the Dutch were governing Malacca. A Dutch official named Menie wrote that the local Orang Asli, called Benua, refused to live in Malacca, even though they were given food and clothing whenever they visited it. Within a few years the Benua had retreated inland, because enroaching Minangkabau colonists from Sumatra took o capturing them, carrying them off, and keeping them in bondage."
