SOME 80 Orang Asli households in three villages in Slim River have received bags of rice from a non-governmental organisation to help them during the movement control order (MCO) period.

Orang Asli Development Cooperative founder Ramesh Arumugam Chettiar said he managed to collect funds from friends to buy rice for the villagers in Sungai Bill, Kampung Gesau and part of Kampung Bangkung.
