Chapter 3 - Report of the Research and Policy Development Group (vii) The Community Learning Centre (CLC) in Sabah was developed by the Partners of Community Organisation in Sabah (PACOS Trust), to provide formal (kindergarten/nursery) and informal education for children aged 4-6. The CLC also serves as a community meeting place for discussions and programmes on the development of the economic system, and land and resource management. The CLC provides a place for Indigenous Peoples to learn, share and protect traditional knowledge and skills. These include handicraft-making, songs/dances, stories, music, language, food, terminology documentation and background documentation for village children. The establishment of the CLC is based on Articles 29 and 30 of the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) and Articles 13 and 14 of the UNDRIP. (viii) Gerai OA comprises volunteers who sell unique indigenous handicraft such as handmade baskets and jewellery throughout Malaysia. This is intended to preserve indigenous heritage and culture, promote indigenous arts to the public, document craft-making, foster reproduction of the craft heritage, improve production techniques, create new markets, and assist craft makers in supplementing their income. The full proceeds of sales are returned to the craft makers, to pay their children’s school fees or to invest in the opening of farms. (ix) Since the MOH took over the management of the Orang Asli Hospital in Gombak, Selangor, from the JAKOA, a special unit has been set up to address health issues of Indigenous Peoples. The MOH strictly enforces regulations on maintaining the standard of drugs provided to all patients, including Orang Asli. (x) The Indigenous Peoples Network of Malaysia or Jaringan Orang Asal Se-Malaysia (JOAS) has done extensive work in promoting the UNDRIP and applying its provisions in court cases. This has led to several landmark decisions that have upheld the rights of Indigenous Peoples. Since Malaysia’s adoption of the UNDRIP in 2007, JOAS has conducted numerous road shows and workshops nationwide, and produced popular materials to create awareness of the Declaration mainly among Indigenous Peoples.
