However, the Orang Asli involved...

Description

"However, the Orang Asli involved were not happy with this move. Juki Sungkai, an Orang Asli youth leader, had questioned why forest products valued at RM60 million (USD15.8 million) were to be apportioned by the Koperasi Daya Asli Johor Berhad (mainly set up by JHEOA officers) and not by the local community. For this reason alone, Juki Added, "The regroupment project in Bekok should be put on hold because the project was given to a company which is not in accordance with the Orang Asli Act" (Utusan Malaysia 10.6.1997)."
