A Malaysia Day wish for our orang asli, orang asal and other natives

Under threat: The Temiars have had to put up blockades near Gua Musang to ensure their ancestral lands are not encroached as far back as 2012.

TODAY we celebrate Malaysia Day. A day in 1963 we hoped would take all of us to greater things. That we would build a great nation, together. 

A great nation is great to its people, and great to its marginalised and oppressed minority, first and foremost.
