Objective: To get the information on the life style of the indigenous people in the modern world.
Target Audience: Global audience (teen and adult)
Design Statement: New Age Native People
My Plan: As the trip is already determined on which tribe that I will have a close look at (temiar people) a specific ethnic.
The details in the description that I got from my research at the Orang Asli Museum is not detailed enough and I am eager to experience their lifestyle myself. I also hope to get to see any incantation by my own eyes.
Brief History
The indigenous people has always been here long before the Malays and Bataks arrived. They have been living their simple life before the arrival of Indian traders trading goods between them.
The history of the indigenous people was filled with some dark period where they were turned to slave by the Malays and Bataks between the 18th and 19th century. The man was killed and the children and women was taken as slave due to the fact that they can be "tamed" easily rather than the mature Men.
The rise of Malay sultanate forced the native to move further inward into the jungle. Despite being treated like that, they were a key component in the critical period of the communism. With the help of the indigenous people, the Malayan army was able to defeat the terrorizing communist.
