The relationships between Orang Asli & Various
BEFORE WW2
Proto-Malays – close contact with the
Malays for hundreds of years
This does not mean that the Semai and Negrito had no contacts at all
with other communities.
There is evidence to show that many modern Malays have some Proto-Malay blood.
The Japanese Occupation
European tin-miners, colonial administrators, managers of
rubber estates and, in some cases, their female relations.
Dec1941 - Feb 1942: Japanese invaders swept from Kota
Bharu in the north to Singapore
Friendly contacts made by many Chinese with the Orang ASli before the war became invaluable during the
Occupation
The Emergency
The government's interest in the Orang Asli was seen as a
critical matter of national security.
For the first time, the Orang Asli were the main interest of
the British administration
After centuries of relative isolation they
experienced considerable and often brutal
contact with warring factions of outsiders.
Post-Emergency period
1957: Federation of Malaya gained independence
1960: Emergency was declared over by the YDP Agong
Jabatan Hal Ehwal Orang Asli was formed
