Perak MB Datuk Seri Ahmad Faizal Azumu briefing to the medias on his first year anniversary of Pakatan government reigns in Perak.RONNIE CHIN/The Star.
PETALING JAYA: The Perak government is legally wrong when it claimed that Orang Asli in the state have no customary or ancestral land rights, says Malaysian Bar president Abdul Fareed Abdul Gafoor.
"In this regard, the Mentri Besar's (Datuk Seri Ahmad Faizal Azumu) contention that the Perak constitution and written law must expressly sanction Orang Asli customary or ancestral land before they are legally recognised, is legally erroneous, " he said in a media statement issued on Wednesday (July 31).
