message: Orang asli not getting the rights of bumiputera has always seemed an unfairness to me and while my personal viewpoint is irrelevant, I added a section on the lack of recognition from the source alway used in the article. AFAIK, Orang Asli also don't get any of the benefits of the NEP, no quotas etc. There are perhaps bigger issues but perhaps worthy of more mention in the article. I believe SUHAKAM has argued that orang asli should receive recognition in the constititution but couldn't find mention of this in the source used in Bumiputera (Malaysia) (See Talk:Bumiputera (Malaysia)#Constitution/SUHAKAM) so haven't added this for now. There's some interesting comments in the source we use at  from Mahathir and TAR which could perhaps be incorporate in the article (and are probably better then the unsourced claims of the Malay view) but I wasn't sure how to do so as the comments are specifically reflecting on them being bumiputera at the section is about. 
BTW SUHAKAM generally is probably a decent source for issues relating to orang asli rights and the like. For example  mentions that they're currently preparing a report due for release in mid 2010.

message: The term Orang Asal is a self-identification term that encompasses all indigenous people of Malaysia, whether in the Peninsular or in Borneo. Orang Asli OTOH is a specific term that refers to the indigenous people of Peninsular Malaysia only. The redirect of Orang Asal to this page might require some review. - Bob K | Talk 06:03, 22 November 2010 (UTC)

message: "as with their help, the Malayan army was able to defeat the communist insurgents" doesn't sound right. This conflict was fought largely by British and Commonwealth forces. --163.119.172.226 (talk) 13:38, 16 January 2012 (UTC)

message: :::::Orang Asli refers to the indigenous ethnic groups of the Malay Peninsula. Orang Ulu refers to a group of 27 minority indigenous ethnic groups in Sarawak and to some extend in Sabah as well. Orang Asal is a collective term that encompasses all indigenous ethnic groups, both in west and east Malaysia. Quoting from the same IWGIA source "They are collectively known as Orang Asal. The Orang Asli are the Indigenous Peoples of Peninsular Malaysia." -Jeblat (talk) 13:07, 2 December 2023 (UTC)
