Relief, Rebuild, Restart
We are a group of passionate 4×4 enthusiasts who dedicate their own time and resources to provide desperately needed support and services to Orang Asli communities in need in remote areas.
100% volunteer and not-for-profit, based in Malaysia.
Disaster
Disaster Relief
We coordinate disaster relief efforts both locally and internationally, ensuring the timely delivery of essential aid such as food, medical supplies, clean water, and safe shelter to affected communities.
​
Since our establishment, we have mobilized volunteers to provide critical support during numerous disasters, including the Kelantan floods of 2015.
​
With our fleet of four-wheel drive vehicles and experienced off-road volunteers, we can reach even the most remote and flood-affected areas, ensuring that aid reaches those who need it most, no matter the terrain.
Relief
Food
Food Aid
Some Orang Asli communities continue to face challenges related to food insecurity and malnutrition. In response, we have been proud to partner with Rise against Hunger for several years, delivering nutritious meals to various Orang Asli villages. These meals are fortified with 20 essential vitamins and minerals.
​
Thanks to the support of individual sponsors and businesses, our food aid missions are further enhanced by providing additional essentials such as sugar, salt, vegetables, and canned goods.
Building Infrastructure
Education
Building
Rumah Baca
Recognising the challenges Orang Asli children face in accessing and keeping up with formal education, we establish Rumah Baca - preschool designed for children aged 4 to 6. Our goal is to prepare these children for formal schooling while ensuring they receive the foundational support necessary to succeed in their academic journey.
​
To date, we have built preschools in:
1. Kampung Orang Asli Pos Bering, Kelantan
2. Kampung Orang Asli Sudak, Perak
Hygiene
Building Toilets
Building toilets for the Orang Asli communities is crucial for improving public health and hygiene. Access to proper sanitation facilities helps reduce the spread of diseases, promotes cleanliness, and ensures a healthier environment. It also provides dignity and privacy, particularly for women and children.
​
​These facilities are built using Tetra Pak, a sustainable building material, underscoring our commitment to both community health and environmental responsibility.
Water
Building Water & Filtration System
In some Orang Asli villages, the geographic landscape poses significant challenges to accessing clean water. Many families rely on unfiltered river water as their only viable source, which can lead to skin diseases and diarrhoea. During the raining season, rivers often become dirty and milky, and rising water levels can further limit access to safe drinking water.
​
The design and implementation of water systems depend on the village's water source and geography. For instance, in one project, we constructed a small dam in a river and installed a ramp pump to channel water into a village water tank, providing a sustainable solution for clean water access.
Shelter
Building Home
Although building homes is not our primary focus, when we encounter families living in unsafe huts or shanties, we may step in to build a small house for them, ensuring a safer and secure living environment.
​
In the past, we have built a home in Budu.
Restart
Health
Medical Aid
In collaboration with doctors, we deliver much-needed medical supplies to Orang Asli communities. We organise medical camps where community members are welcomed to seek medical advice and undergo basic health screenings, such as blood pressure and blood glucose level checks, promoting early detection and overall well-being.
Socio-economy
Chicken Coop &
Quail Coop
Orang Asli communities located far from townships or estates, where job opportunities are concentrated, often struggle to maintain a steady income. Many rely on inconsistent odd jobs for survival.
​
We have initiated projects:
- Building chicken coops in Kampung Orang Asli Pos Being, Kelantan, enabling the community to raise and sell chickens, providing a source of income.
- Building quill coops in Kampung Orang Asli Sudak, Perak, where the quail eggs serve as both a source of steady protein and potential income for the community.
