GUA MUSANG: More than 1,000 Orang Asli from the Temiar tribe in Pos Tuel claim they have been risking their lives daily by using a collapsed road in their village.

They claim that the road collapsed due to heavy vehicles, which belong to a company that has cleared the land for vegetable and fruit planting, using the same road to get to their agricultural site.
