Constitutional amendment on Orang Asli rights to be tabled before current term ends

Cameron Highlands MP highlights Article 153 where Bumiputera, Sabah and Sarawak Pribumi are included, but not peninsula Indigenous communities

SEREMBAN – An amendment to the Federal Constitution regarding the interests of the Orang Asli community is expected to be tabled by 2027 at the latest.

Cameron Highlands MP Datuk Ramli Mohd Nor said the engagement process with the Orang Asli community and non-governmental organisations (NGO) is currently underway in Selangor, Kuala Lumpur, Pahang, Perak and Kedah, and positive feedback has been obtained. 

“After the engagement is completed, the matter will be brought to the prime minister and then (tabled in Parliament) before the 15th term ends,” he told reporters at a gathering of Orang Asli village elders and village development and safety committee heads here today. 

The Dewan Rakyat deputy speaker said the constitutional amendment involved two matters. 

“In the suggested amendment, the duty of taking care of the Orang Asli is placed in the same schedule. This means both federal and state governments must be responsible, because there are many issues, like land, forestry and the community’s welfare. 

“We will look at Article 153 concerning Bumiputera as well as Sabah and Sarawak Pribumi community interests, in which the Orang Asli are excluded. So I’m proposing this amendment,” he added. – June 22, 2024
