DANIEL
Before WW2
Proto-Malays
-For hundreds of years, there has been close contact with the Malays.
-There is evidence that many modern Malays have some Proto-Malay ancestry.
-Many Proto-Malays have become integrated into Malay communities, and many have converted to Islam.
Senoi and Negrito
-There is ample evidence that the Senoi, in particular, obtained commodities.
-Some of the more enterprising young men also worked from time to time
Trade and governance
-early 20th century, the Malays depended on the Orang Asli as their primary source of forest products
-Gold mines
-Marine produce
-Important leadership roles
-Deep-rooted and justified fear of Malays
Orang Asli as Slaves
-As infidels (kafir), Orang Asli could be captured and enslaved. There were no social, religious or legal obstacles to discourage Malays wishing to enslave members of the jungle communities.
Contact with Chinese
-Some Chinese traders, cultivators and timber workers did, however, have dealings with the jungle people and it seems that the relationships established were generally friendly and mutually advantageous.
