WITH only 18.9% or 27,276 individuals from 144,180 Orang Asli aged 18 and above registered for the National Covid-19 Immunisation Programme, the Orang Asli Development Department (Jakoa) is pooling all resources to make the vaccination programme for the community a success.

Jakoa has planned for various initiatives to disseminate information on vaccination to the community, including those who lead a nomadic life.
