Orang Asli activist rues lack of consultation in Oraco’s takeover

Orang Asli communities in Pahang were not properly consulted before a state-owned corporation took over replanting projects previously managed by the Rubber Industry Smallholders Development Authority (Risda).

This is according to Orang Asli activist Eliana Tan, who voiced anger and disappointment towards the Orang Asli Development Department (Jakoa) and the Pahang government on the matter.
