We continue looking into the issue on Orang Asli customary land rights this week, by exploring the role of state governments which hold jurisdiction over land and forest matters. We speak to Bukit Lanjan assemblyperson Elizabeth Wong, who established a task force under the Selangor state government in 2010 to gazette Orang Asli customary land.
