  • Title Protecting and Assisting Refugees and Asylum-Seekers in Malaysia
    Title Protecting and assisting refugees and asylum-seekers in Malaysia : the role of the UNHCR, informal mechanisms, and the 'Humanitarian exception' Sub Title Author Lego, Jera Beah H. Publisher Global Center of Excellence Center of Governance for Civil Society, Keio University Publication year 2012 Jtitle Journal of political science and sociology No.17 (2012. 10) ,p.75- 99 Abstract This paper problematizes Malaysia's apparently contradictory policies – harsh immigration rules applied to refugees and asylum seekers on the one hand, and the continued presence and functioning of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) on the other hand. It asks how it has been possible to protect and assist refugees and asylum seekers in light of such policies and how such protection and assistance is implemented, justified, and maintained. Giorgio Agamben's concept of the state of exception is employed in analyzing the possibility of refugee protection and assistance amidst an otherwise hostile immigration regime and in understanding the nature of juridical indeterminacy in which refugees and asylum seekers in Malaysia inhabit. I also argue that the exception for refugees in Malaysia is a particular kind of exception, that is, a 'humanitarian exception.' Insofar as the state of exception is decided on by the sovereign, in Carl Schmitt's famous formulation, I argue that it is precisely in the application of 'humanitarian exception' for refugees and asylum seekers that the Malaysian state is asserting its sovereignty. As for the protection and assistance to refugees and asylum seekers, it remains an exception to the rule. In other words, it is temporary, partial, and all together insufficient for the preservation of the dignity of refugees and asylum seekers.

The importance of this article relates to the knowledge context of Orang Asli as a minority who are still backward with regards to their unique distribution and demographic profile as compared to the Malay or other communities in the urban areas. They live in deep interior rural areas and are far away from modernization. As such, articles on this community become paramount to create awareness amongst people on their existence and challenges Keywords: Demography of Orang Asli, Distribution of Orang Asli, Minority Ethnic, Orang Asli I. INTRODUCTION The Orang Asli (OA) are called by various names, depending on the characteristics of the livelihood of the OA concerned. According to him (at that time), the aboriginal tribes have no proper native name on their own and therefore suitable designations have had to be found. According to him too, the other name for the OA that is recorded in the literature is Kensiu. At that time, the Malays referred to the OA by many names, like Orang Utan (jungle men), to differentiate them from the Malays who were called Village Dwellers [1].

  • Orang Asli in Peninsular Malaysia : Population, Spatial Distribution and Socio-Economic Condition
    Orang Asli in Peninsular Malaysia : Population, Spatial Distribution and Socio-Economic Condition Tarmiji Masron*, Fujimaki Masami**, Norhasimah Ismail*** Abstract Orang Asli or indigenous peoples are peoples with unique languages, knowledge systems and beliefs. Indigenous peoples often have much in common with other neglected segments of societies, such as lack of political representation and participation, economic marginalization and poverty, lack of access to social services and discrimination. Besides that, there is population problem in the community and among them often leads to the neglect of their health and of essential needs like proper clothing and nutritious foods for the whole family. In Peninsular Malaysia, Orang Asli is separated into three main tribal groups includes Semang (Negrito), Senoi and Proto Malay (Aboriginal Malay) and consists of 19 ethnic.

  • 391 Sandra Khor Manickam in Today's Malaysia Orang Asli, the Minority
    book reviews 391 Sandra Khor Manickam Taming the Wild; Aborigines and racial knowledge in colonial Malaya 2015, Singapore, Asian Studies Association of Australia in association with nus Press, 2015, Xii+130 pp. isbn: 9789971698324. Price: sgd 36.00 (paperback). In today’s Malaysia Orang Asli, the minority indigenous people, struggle for recognition in a Malay dominated country. For many the difference between a Malay and an Orang Asli seems clear enough but as scholars have shown, complex construction work has been necessary to create the categories of ‘Malayness’ and ‘indigeneity’ and was done partly by the British with their colonial politics and racial ideas. Sandra Khor Manickam’s book, developed from her PhD thesis, traces the genealogy of the ‘aborigines’ of Malaysia, always in opposition to Malays. Central to the book are knowledge claims about race and the ways in which ideas about indigeneity and aboriginality were made in many different forms. Tocriticise the fixity that seems to lie in all classifications, writes Manickam, her book aims to show how these ideas were made in specific social environments and how some became dominant while alternative or subversive classifications also came and went. This means that the book is two things. It is a semantic history of all the terms surrounding aboriginality: Orang Asli, Orang Asal, Sakai, Jakun, Negrito, Semang, Senoi, and other words used for those people who seemed to have lived in the area longer than Malays. It is also a history of the wider racial ideas that informed these meanings and classifications, formulated by British anthropologists and government officials.

  • Peninsular Malaysia's Negrito Orang Asli and Its Theory of African Origin
    Sains Malaysiana 42(7)(2013): 921–926 Peninsular Malaysia’s Negrito Orang Asli and Its Theory of African Origin (Orang Asli Negrito di Semenanjung Malaysia dan Teori Asal Usul Afrika) ENDOM ISMAIL*, FARAHNAZ AMINI, SHAIRAH ABDUL RAZAK, HUSNA MOHD ZAINI, REZA FARHOUR & BIN ALWI ZILfaLIL ABSTRACT Negritos of Peninsular Malaysia have physical features which strongly resemble the African pygmies rather than any of the other main South East Asian ethnic groups. In addition, their features are also completely different from the two other large sub-groups of the Peninsular Malaysia Orang Asli, i.e. Senoi and Proto-Malay. In this study, we genetically screened three African-specific markers, Glucose-6 Phosphate Dehydrogenase (G6PD) gene PvuII Type 2 polymorphism and A- mutation; and Sickle Cell trait in 103 unrelated individuals with G6PD deficiency. None of the Negritos’ samples carried A- and Sickle cell mutations but all males and females have the PvuII Type 2 polymorphism. The same results were seen in all DNA samples of the Malaysian’s Malay, Chinese and Indians. Additionally, all females in this study were homozygous for PvuII Type 2 polymorphism. Thus, we concluded that this polymorphism is widespread in all Malaysian population and is not unique to just Africans. However, these findings indicated that the polymorphism was widely conserved and can be used to study the African descendant in any world population hitherto supporting the ‘Out of Africa’ theory. Keywords: G6PD; Malaysia; Negrito; Orang Asli ABSTRAK Negrito di Semenanjung Malaysia mempunyai ciri-ciri fizikal yang sangat menyerupai orang Pigmi di Afrika berbanding kumpulan etnik lain di Asia Tenggara.

The following two hypotheses are tested: greater degrees of political centralization will determine the extent to which asylum policy can be successfully formed and implemented and that greater degree of political openness in a regime will lead to greater difficulty in successfully forming and implementing a coherent policy of asylum.
