After independence the government has embarked on an inclusive development program in an effort to develop the Orang Asli community. Various development projects have been carry out to the Orang Asli community including resettlement of residences, rural road projects, provide of electricity, clean water and social facilities such as education to the Orang Asli. JAKOA has planned and implemented development programs as requested by the government. However, at the level of Orang Asli involvement in the development program it is still low. Limited and low involvement has affected the formation and development of the Orang Asli community. This is why most Orang Asli in Malaysia are still trapped in poverty. Therefore, the study was conducted to find out the factors to the lack of participation among Semaq Beri community at Hulu Terengganu. The results of the study are expected to provide an explanation on why some economic development programs have failed. From the findings, it also helps in planning and implementing more effective economic development programs in the future.
