Description: "Dunn (1975: 109) also noted that the Orang Asli have played a significant role in the Malaysian Peninsula's economic history as collectors and primary traders as early as the 5th century A.D. This is confirmed by Andaya and Andaya (1982: 11), who suggested that an internal trading network had linked the periphery of the forest with the hinterland. By this means, goods were bartered and passed from one group of Orang Asli forest dwellers to another, sometimes over forest tracks but most often along rivers."
