EDITOR, NEWS DESK FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
PRESS STATEMENT
THE RIGHTS OF THE MARGINALISED GROUPS MUST BE PROTECTED

 
The Human Rights Commission of Malaysia (the Commission) is of the firm view that enforcement agencies should not abuse their powers and, amongst other things, should respect the rights of the marginalised groups especially those of the Orang Asli and the natives. Reference is made to the incident involving the detention and arrest by the police of 13 Orang Asli in Gua Musang, Kelantan on 28 January 2012. Apparently, the Temiar tribe had staged a peaceful protest against the activities of logging companies, which have resulted in an encroachment into their land. Regrettably, it is alleged that the police, in dealing with the protest, had used force in dismantling the blockade by the Orang Asli, and in the process exhibited a lack of sensitivity, concern and understanding of the plight of our marginalized citizens. It is further understood that even after assurances by the state authority that the grievances of the Temiar tribe would be resolved by mid-January, logging activities are still going on, thus triggering off the protest by the Temiar.
The police had reportedly forced down the barrier and burned down the adjacent structures set up by the Temiar, who were merely expressing their stance in their struggle to claim back their rights to the native lands. The family members and friends were reportedly prevented from accompanying them to the detention centre and they were also denied legal representation before being released several hours later. The Commission calls upon the State Government to act expeditiously in resolving the plight of the Orang Asli in Kelantan and to protect their rights to their ancestral lands and livelihood. It also urges that all State Governments respect court decisions awarding the rights to land of the Orang Asli and hold more open consultations with the communities.
The Commission is currently holding its first ever National Inquiry into the land rights of the indigenous peoples with the goals to develop recommendations to the Federal and State Governments to review domestic land laws and policies to incorporate human rights elements and to formulate strategies and plan of action with the aim of protecting and promoting the indigenous peoples' rights to land.

HAK KUMPULAN TERPINGGIR MESTI DILINDUNGI

 
Suruhanjaya Hak Asasi Manusia Malaysia (Suruhanjaya) berpandangan tegas bahawa agensi-agensi penguatkuasa tidak sepatutnya menyalahgunakan kuasa dan, antara lain, harus menghormati hak- kumpulan yang terpinggir terutamanya masyarakat Orang Asli dan Pribumi. Rujukan ini dibuat berhubung dengan kejadian penahanan dan penangkapan 13 Orang Asli di Gua Musang, Kelantan oleh pihak polis pada 28 Januari 2012. Jelas bahawa suku kaum Temiar telah mengadakan bantahan secara aman terhadap aktiviti-aktiviti syarikat pembalakan yang telah menceroboh ke atas tanah mereka. Malangnya lagi pihak polis telah didakwa menggunakan kekerasan dalam rombakan sekatan oleh masyarakat Orang Asli dan dalam proses tersebut telah menunjukkan sikap kurang sensitif, kurang mengambil berat dan kurang pemahaman tentang nasib rakyat yang terpinggir. Adalah juga difahamkan bahawa aktiviti pembalakan masih lagi diteruskan walaupun selepas jaminan diberikan oleh pihak berkuasa negeri untuk menyelesaikan ketidakpuasan suku kaum Temiar ini menjelang pertengahan bulan Januari, dengan itu telah mencetuskan bantahan suku kaum Temiar
Pihak polis dilaporkan telah merombak penghalang dan membakar struktur bersebelahan yang dibina oleh suku Temiar yang telah hanya menyatakan pendirian mereka dalam perjuangan untuk menuntut kembali hak mereka kepada tanah adat. Ahli keluarga dan rakan-rakan dilaporkan telah dihalang untuk mengiringi mereka ke pusat tahanan dan mereka juga telah dinafikan perwakilan peguam sebelum dibebaskan beberapa jam kemudian. Suruhanjaya menggesa kerajaan negeri untuk bertindak segera dalam menyelesaikan nasib masyarakat Orang Asli di Kelantan dan melindungi hak mereka kepada tanah nenek moyang dan hak kepada kehidupan. Adalah juga digesa agar semua kerajaan negeri menghormati keputusan mahkamah yang telah memberi hak tanah kepada Orang Asli dan agar dapat mengadakan lebih banyak rundingan terbuka bersama masyarakat ini.
Suruhanjaya kini sedang menjalankan Inkuiri Nasioinal buat pertama kalinya mengenai hak tanah masyarakat Orang Asli/Orang Asal yang bermatlamat untuk merangka syor-syor kepada Kerajaan Persekutuan dan Negeri untuk mengkaji semula perundangan domestik tanah dan dasar-dasar yang menerapkan pendekatan hak asasi dan untuk merangka strategi dan pelan tindakan dengan tujuan untuk melindungi dan mempromosi hak Orang Asli/Asal kepada tanah.
