Guest: Dr Colin Nicholas, Founder and Coordinator, Center for Orang Asli Concerns (COAC)
Many of the challenges facing Orang Asli communities are already well known, but what’s really driving them? In Part Two of our two-part special, we turn to what many argue is the root issue: land. In Part One, we explored the lived experiences, from education and healthcare to questions around identity and development. Now, we turn to land, and why it remains one of the most critical and contested issues. This conversation is based on the policy brief “Orang Asli Advancement and the Right to Land, Territories and Resources,” by the Center for Orang Asli Concerns. Helping us to unpack all the issues is Dr Colin Nicholas, the Founder and Coordinator of the Center for Orang Asli Concerns.
Listen to Part 1 here.
