TAPAH: Nearly 100 villagers from Kampung Kinjang Baru in Chenderiang hope the state government will help to solve their land grant issues.
According to villager Mohamad Ayob Saad, 55, despite farming on the land for nearly four generations, they had yet to be given grants.
"We are not asking for the moon and the stars. We just want grants for the lands we have worked for generations.Earlier, a ruckus had broken out during a discussion between the villagers with representatives from SADC, the Tapah district office and the Chenderiang assemblyman's office at the village hall.Single mother Aziza Osman, 41, said she could no longer work on her family farm after they were told that the land belonged to SADC.
"And now suddenly, the district office says the land belongs to SADC. How are we supposed to live?" she asked."A majority of the villagers here rely fully on their farms. Before this, we didn’t earn much, and now we have nothing.
