Aniza Ziana Anak Tutok

Temuan

Kampung Orang Asli Pulau Kempas, Selangor

At a young age, Aniza serves as Village Secretary and Head of the Temuan Cultural Information Centre (TCIC), leading efforts to protect and share Temuan heritage with non-Orang Asli individuals. Her collaboration with Global Environment Centre and Sahabat Gambut Asli Temuan has strengthened her community's sustainable eco-tourism model. Aniza proves that youth is not a barrier but an asset in cultural leadership.

the Allyship Pledge

We recognise that a sustainable, thriving future is inherently relational and reciprocal. As signatories, we accept our shared agency and responsibility in shaping such futures. 

We will, therefore, take action and begin from where we are. In Malaysia, this starts with principled, intentional, and meaningful allyship with the Orang Asli.

We therefore commit to stand with the Orang Asli as allies: to listen with humility, show up in solidarity, and walk alongside them in their pursuit of justice, equity, and self-determination – whether as those who call Malaysia home, or as guests upon this land.
