          Abstract

          Hak berpolitik merupakan salah satu hak asasi manusia yang diberikan kepada semua tanpa mengira kaum, umur, jantina, warna kulit ataupun agama. Orang Asal juga tidak terkecuali dari menerima hak ini. Orang Asal di Malaysia terbahagi kepada dua kategori iaitu Orang Asli di Semenanjung Malaysia dan Natif di Sabah dan Sarawak. Persoalannya, sejauhmanakah hak berpolitik ini dinikmati oleh Orang Asal di Malaysia terutamanya dari sudut representasi, mengundi dan pentadbiran? Adakah hak yang diberikan kepada Orang Asal di Malaysia selari dengan peruntukkan undang-undang antarabangsa yang sedia ada? Dengan menggunakan kaedah kajian doktrinal dan perbandingan diantara Malaysia dengan Finland dan Norway, kajian ini mendapati bahawa penyertaan politik Orang Asli adalah lebih rendah berbanding dengan penyertaan politik dikalangan Natif di Sabah dan Sarawak. Secara keseluruhannya, hak berpolitik Orang Asal di Malaysia adalah tidak selari dengan hak berpolitik sepertimana yang diiktiraf oleh undang-undang antarabangsa, mahupun sepertimana di Finland dan Norway. Dapatan kajian ini amat signifikan kerana memberi panduan kepada pembuat dasar dan undang-undang Malaysia dalam mengenalpasti sebarang perubahan yang perlu dilaksanakan bagi menjamin hak berpolitik Orang Asal di Malaysia. ABSTRACT Political rights are one of the basic human rights granted to all regardless of race, age, gender, skin color or religion. Indigenous Peoples are also entitled for this right. Indigenous Peoples in Malaysia are divided into two categories namely Orang Asli in Peninsular Malaysia and Natives in Sabah and Sarawak. The question is, how much is this political right enjoyed by Indigenous Peoples in Malaysia especially in terms of representation, voting and administration? Is the right granted to Indigenous Peoples in Malaysia is compatible to the existing provisions of international law? Using doctrinal and comparative research methods between Malaysia and Finland and Norway, this study found that Orang Asli’s political participation was lower compared to political participation among the Natives in Sabah and Sarawak. As a whole, the political rights of Indigenous Peoples in Malaysia are incompatible with the political rights as recognized by international law, as well as in Finland and Norway. The findings of this study are significant as a guide for Malaysian policy and law makers in identifying any changes that need to be made to safeguard Indigenous Peoples’ political rights in Malaysia. Keywords: Political rights, Indigenous Peoples, Orang Asli, UNDRIP, Malaysia
