Government Care for Malaysian Aborigines

I would like to correct the impression that westerners have towards the lack of government attention towards the welfare of the aborigine groups in Malaysia such as the penans,sakai and the others.In Malaysia the government since independence had established a government machinery to specifically care for the welfare of the aborigine groups in Malaysia.This department is responsible to look into the affairs of all the aborigines such as the their need for finacial aid,schooling for their children,facilities for their community use and a host of other things that would facilitate them.I have seen newspapers reporting that each time an issue was raised about the aborigines in the papers you will see the government departments will rush to their aid.I have also read about their children making to universities and alot of them have been successful.We even have one of them being appointed as member of the upper house in our parliament.So,how can we say they are being neglected.A salute to the Malaysian government for the efforts to uplift and assimilate the aborigines into the mainstream.

Penan Bracelet

This week my daughters from Sarawak visit me and one of them carried a very special gift for me from the interior jungles of Sarawak.She presented me a bracelet that is being used by the penans of Sarawak.I am indeed very pleased.Perhaps I should take a shot of it and insert it here.It is so charming and I have worn it daily to the office since receiving it.

Aborigine of Malaysia

I come from a country where there many aborigine tribes scattered all over the country.It is quite interesting to learn about their lifestyle.One of the tribes that is world renowned is the PENANS and they lived in the interior of Sarawak,which is in East Malaysia situated on the island of Borneo.This aborigine group lives a nomadic lifestyle spanning the jungles of Borneo stretching from Sarawak to Kalimantan,Indonesia.It is interesting to note that they are fair skinned and slim in size.They lived in makeshift huts and uses the blowpipe to hunt for food.As time passes,they too became aware of profitable economic activities.After having lived in Sarawak for 2 years, I have seen them arriving in the town of Lawas carrying with them goods of economic value, such as sandalwood.This aborigine group is the hallmark of Sarawak.READ MORE.......
