Akhirnya...RM6.5 juta untuk Sagong Tasi, rakan Malaysiakini.com May 26, 2010 Hafiz Yatim Selepas 15 tahun, tujuh orang daripada suku Temuan memperoleh pampasan RM6.5 juta daripada kerajaan persekutuan untuk tanah adat yang diambil bagi membina sebuah lebuh raya ke Lapangan Terbang Antarabangsa Kuala Lumpur (KLIA) di Sepang. Dalam kes bersejarah ini, Mahkamah Persekutuan hari ini mencatatkan satu penyelesaian antara mereka dan kerajaan persekutuan yang mengiktiraf hak Orang Asli terhadap tanah adatnya di Bukit Tampoi, Dengkil. Sebanyak 38 ekar tanah adat itu telah diambil oleh kerajaan pusat bagi membina sebuah lebuh raya ke KLIA tanpa sebarang pampasan. Mahkamah itu membenarkan penyelesaian tersebut dicatatkan hari ini setelah kerajaan pusat dan kerajaan Selangor bersetuju membayar papasan tersebut kepada Sagong Tasi. Sagong, 78, dan enam yang lain (dua daripada mereka telah meninggal dunia) daripada suku Temuan memfailkan saman terhadap kerajaan persekutuan, kerajaan Selangor dan Lembaga Lebuhraya Malaysia (LLM) dan kontraktor United Engineers Malaysia Bhd (UEM) ke mahkamah mengenai perkara itu. Kebuntuan hanya selesai apabila pada 22 April tahun lalu, kerajaan Selangor yang dipimpin Pakatan Rakyat menarik dari daripada mencabar kes Sagong. Bagaimanapun kerajaan persekutuan dan pihak lain berjaya mendapatkan perintah penangguhan. Pada 12 April 2002, hakim Mahkamah Tinggi Shah Alam, Mohd Noor Ahmad mengarahkan kedua-dua kerajaan persekutuan dan negeri, MHA dan UEM membayar pampasan kepada Sagong Tasi dan enam yang lain akibat kehilangan tanah mereka itu.

Compensation for Orang Ash Native Land in Malaysia: the Perceptions and Challenges in Its Quantification
Compensation for Orang AsH native land in Malaysia: The perceptions and challenges in its quantification Anuar Alias and Md Nasir Daud Centre for Studies of Urban and Reg iona l Real Estate Faculty of Built Environment University of Malaya Abstract This paper describes the results of an investigation on the challenges confronting valuers in dealing with the assessmen t of compensation for Orang AsH native land (OANL). In Malaysia, valuers are often ambivalent about assessing the worth of Orang AsH property rights; this is because the conventional valuation toolkits are 'ill-equipped' to cope with the multi-faceted issues involved in valuing such lands. Orang AsH view the worth of their lands from a multitud e of dimensions (spiritual, cultural, communa l and economic), and this often takes the value consideration far beyond that contemplated by private registered land owners. The study also looks into the compensation for native titles in o ther countries and draw s local parallel to the problem. The key issu es that have been identified include the valuation approaches; land rights; monetary and non monetary co mpensa tion; legal framework and; negotiatio n for compensation. These lead to the recommendation that the compensa tion issue for Orang AsH native land is need of a legislative reform . Keywords: Acquisition, Orang Asli landrights, compensation, chaliet/gesl valuatioll approaches Introduction interests conferred to a group settlement The purpose of this paper is to report gran tby the Land (Group SettlementAreas) the results of a preliminary survey that Act 1960 in which the rights, although has been undertaken to elicit perceptions imp aired, are not totally extinguished .

Faculty of Law, University of Malaya Constitutional Law Lecture Series
Faculty of Law, University of Malaya Constitutional Law Lecture Series Protection of Marginalised Minorities Under The Constitution By Dato’ Seri Mohd Hishamudin Yunus Retired Court of Appeal Judge Consultant, Messrs. Lee Hishammuddin Allen & Gledhill 1 Distinguished Audience, Ladies and Gentleman, Good evening, It is truly an honour to be invited by the Faculty of Law, University of Malaya, to deliver a Constitutional law lecture in this pleasant evening. I must thank and congratulate Dr. Johan, Dean of the Faculty and Messrs Chooi & Company for jointly organizing this Constitutional law lecture series, which is very beneficial to law students and the general public. Introduction The topic of today’s lecture is “Protection of Marginalised Minorities Under the Constitution” There are two elements in today’s topic: on one hand we have the “Federal Constitution”; and on the other hand, we have “marginalised minorities”. I shall begin by referring to a basic principle of constitutional law that many members of the audience are familiar with: the principle of the supremacy of the Constitution. This principle stipulates that no one institution is supreme; not even Parliament. Only the Federal Constitution is supreme, being the highest law of the country. It binds both state and federal governments, including the executive branch. In other words, the organs of Government must operate in accordance with what is prescribed or empowered by the Federal Constitution; they must not transgress any Constitutional provisions. Now, the phrase “marginalised minorities” is not defined in our Constitution; and therefore, I look into dictionaries for guidance. The Fowler’s Dictionary of Modern 2 English published by Oxford shed some light in this regard.

Finally... RM6.5mil compensation for Orang Asli Malaysiakini.com May 26, 2010 Hafiz Yatim After a 15-year legal battle, 26 families of a Temuan tribe in Selangor have obtained RM6.5 million in compensation for their native customary land which was seized to build a highway to the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA). sagong tasi bukit tampoi case 090107 explainSagong Tasi, 78 (left), and six others - two of whom have since died - had filed a suit against the federal government, the then BN-led Selangor government, Malaysian Highway Authority (MHA) and contractor United Engineers Malaysia Bhd (UEM). This was after their land was acquired without compensation to build the Nilai-Banting highway that also runs to KLIA in Sepang in January 1995. The landmark settlement made by the Federal Court this morning also has the effect of recognising the native customary rights of these Orang Asli to the 38-acre site of their former settlement in Bukit Tampoi, Dengkil. Chief Judge of Malaya Arifin Zakaria, Chief Judge of Sabah and Sarawak Richard Malanjum and James Foong, who made up the three-member bench, ordered the sum to be deposited with the Shah Alam High Court within a month from today. Senior federal counsel Kamaluddin Md Said - who was assisted by senior federal counsel Saifuddin Edris Zainuddin representing the federal government - said the other two parties, MHA and UEM, have agreed to withdraw their appeal over the Court of Appeal decision. NONE“We want the court to record settlement by both parties,” he said. UEM was represented by Harjinder Kaur.

Orang Asli Land Rights by Undrip Standards in Peninsular Malaysia: an Evaluation and Possible Reform
ORANG ASLI LAND RIGHTS BY UNDRIP STANDARDS IN PENINSULAR MALAYSIA: AN EVALUATION AND POSSIBLE REFORM YOGESWARAN SUBRAMANIAM A thesis in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of New South Wales Faculty of Law August 2012 THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW SOUTH WALES Thesis/Dissertation Sheet Surname or Family name: Subramaniam First name: Yogeswaran Other name/s: NIL Abbreviation for degree as given in the University calendar: PhD School: Law Faculty: Law Title: Orang Asli land rights by UNDRIP standards in Peninsular Malaysia: an evaluation and possible reform Abstract 350 words maximum: (PLEASE TYPE) This thesis makes an original contribution to knowledge by evaluating Malaysian laws on Orang Asli (‘OA’) land and resource rights and suggesting an alternative legal framework for better recognition and protection of these rights: (1) by reference to standards derived from the 2007 United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (‘UNDRIP’); and (2) having regard to the Malaysian Constitution. Malaysia’s vote supporting the UNDRIP and its courts’ recognition of common law Indigenous customary land rights have not induced state action that effectively recognises the customary lands of its Indigenous minority, the OA people. Instead, state land policies focus on the advancement of OA, a marginalised community, through development of OA lands for productive economic use. Such policies may have some positive features but they also continue to erode OA customary lands. Existing protectionist laws affecting OA facilitate these policies and provide limited protection for OA customary lands. Resulting objections from the OA community have prompted calls to honour the UNDRIP.

Previously rubber had come from scattered trees growing wild in the jungles of South America with production only expandable at rising marginal costs. The driving force came from the Industrial Revolution in the West which saw the innovation of large scale factory production of manufactured goods made possible by technological advances, accompanied by more efficient communications e. In , shortly after a Malaysian politician announced that the boundaries of Kinabalu Park, a primary tourist destination, were to be expanded to include the species-rich tropical forest known locally as Bukit Hempuen, most of the area was burned to the ground, allegedly by local people. This new form permits a formulation of Orang Asli citizenship that does not limit them to claiming rights as "wards," binding them to a paternalistic relationship to the state. British estates depended mainly on migrants from India, brought in under government auspices with fares paid and accommodation provided. Average values fell thereafter but investors were heavily committed and planting continued also in the neighboring Netherlands Indies [Indonesia].

Selangor is one of the ﬁve states now governed by the Pakatan Rakyat coalition. This was a signiﬁcant win, being the most urban and lucrative state of the country. It has been considered a model state for the Pakatan Rakyat in its desire to position itself as an alternative federal government. This has been the mandate of the new Selangor government, but its execution has been accompanied by numerous obstacles. This paper analyses the distinctive reform measures undertaken by the state government, the challenges faced, ensuing political transformation, and long-term prospects for Pakatan Rakyat in Selangor.

DEVELOPING A COMPENSATION FRAMEWORK FOR THE ACQUISITION OF ORANG ASLI NATIVE LANDS IN MALAYSIA: THE PROFESSIONALS’ PERCEPTIONS ANUAR ALIAS and MD NASIR DAUD University of Malaya ABSTRACT This research explores the issues of land rights and land acquisition compensation related to the Orang Asli (the Malay term for indigenous peoples) in Peninsular Malaysia. Acquisition of Orang Asli native lands is inevitable as land is scarce to meet the national growth agenda and socio-economic developments. As an independent country, Malaysia provides constitutional guarantees, and customary land tenure is recognised and respected. Unfortunately, due to the ambiguity in Malaysian legal system in relation to the definition of land rights of Orang Asli native lands, the practice of payment of compensation to acquisition of the land tends to be unstructured, and disparity exists among the different states. It is therefore pertinent to propose a uniform compensation framework for the acquisition of Orang Asli native lands. This research adopts a questionnaire survey as the method of study, the descriptive and inferential analysis technique to present the results. The study showed that laws of Malaysia are deficient with regard to the protection of Orang Asli lands and rights to fair and just compensation. This research found that the position of Orang Asli land rights has not improved much. Due to this unresolved land rights issue, the present structure of compensation as spelt out under Sections 11 and 12 of the Aboriginal Peoples Act 1954 is perceived as inadequate. As currently practised, in the absence of proper guidelines and regulations, the determination of compensation is entirely at the discretion of the various authorities.
