If you happen to be at Bera Lake don’t forget to pay a visit to their little village around the lake. ‘Semelai people (Proto Malay) can only be found at the lake, their physical features and way of life is almost similar to the Malay people some seventy years back. Although, they have their own dialect, they understand and speak Malay too. Today, they are still cultivated crops for their own consumption, plant rubber, palm oil and some are participated in the Felda Scheme to seek for a better tomorrow. Once a year, during dry season they are also planting ‘Dry Padi’ (Padi Huma) and harvested them three months later.
