JOHOR BARU: The welfare of Orang Asli in this country, including those of Orang Seletar, is too far behind even though their rights are guaranteed in the Federal Constitution, says Dewan Rakyat Deputy Speaker Datuk Ramli Mohd Nor.

He added that he was hopeful whoever receives the mandate in the Pulai parliamentary by-election would raise issues related to this community.
