Orang Asli in Rompin and Pekan are taught to farm so that they do not depend on aid to feed themselves and their families. – Pic from Global Peace Foundation, July 17, 2021.
A MISSION that commenced last year to teach Orang Asli to grow their own food has borne fruit in Pahang.
Global Peace Foundation (GPF) members have taught 38 families to become self-sufficient, in six villages in Rompin and Pekan.
As a result, these Orang Asli families are growing many varieties of fruits and vegetables for themselves.
Rowena, an Orang Asli villager in Pekan, Pahang, said she is now able to feed her children healthy vegetables and fruits, thanks to the organisation’s food farming programme for the Jakun community.
