Rotarians help orang asli to cope

Still standing: Debris from last year’s floods still trapped at the bridge, in this picture taken in late March, near the orang asli village in Gerik.

GERIK: A group of Rotarians visited an orang asli village in Kampung Sungai Tekam here to help the residents in the aftermath of floods.

While the orang asli houses survived the severe floods, the Rotarians found a speedboat that they had earlier donated to the villagers was badly damaged and rubber trees destroyed.
