The most important areas such as the cemetery and the land of the

Indigenous ancestors will be respected.

More resources will be allocated to upgrade the infrastructure of the Orang

Asli villages, including paved roads, 24-hour electricity grid, treated water

supply and stable communication networks so that the Orang Asli

communities are no longer marginalised.

The number of schools in Orang Asli villages will be increased and equipped

with good facility to ensure their children receive quality education. This will

include a curriculum that will factor the Sociology of the Origin of

Indigenous Peoples. Allocation will also be made to preserve the Indigenous

peoples' culture and heritage.

At the same time, relevant programmes will also be implemented to promote

the culture and heritage of Orang Asli locally and internationally.
