Travel Photography | The Importance of Keywords
© 2007 Wazari Wazir | Taman Negara | Malaysia National Park | Batek People This is a picture of Batek people, one of Malaysia’s aboriginal groups, some people call them “Orang Asli”. I took this picture at the riverbank of Sungai Tembeling, National Park in Pahang. They are “nomadic”, moving from one place to another. I’m not going to write about Batek People here, or to tell you the history of Batek People settlement here in Malaysia but the purpose of this post is about “Keywords”.
