High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Orang Asal are the indigenous people of Malaysia. The term is Malay for "Original People", and the Orang Asal along with Malays are granted Bumiputra status in Malaysia. The Orang Asal in Peninsular Malaysia are collectively known as the Orang Asli, and form small minorities there. However, the Orang Asal of East Malaysia form a majority of the population. Some numbers differ, but East Malaysia contains a total of about 64 indigenous groups, around 39 in Sabah and 25 in Sarawak. Orang Asal make up 60% of Sabah's population, and 50% of Sarawak's population. Sabah's population is hugely diversified, with over 50 languages and 80 dialects spoken. The largest group on Sarawak is the Iban. The population of Sabah are traditionally subsistence farmers, although nowadays they are becoming more involved in local government.
