Mapping Kampung Orang Asli Bukit Lagong - Batu Caves, Selangor

Mapping Kampung Orang Asli Bukit Lagong

Join us to enable community impact   

We are on a mission to empower communities in Selangor! In March 2025, Epic Lead Pathfinders began basic mapping and conversations with village leaders to activate their local resources to develop their own communities. We have received their support to take the next step: Community Mapping.

We are looking for individuals to join us as volunteer Pathfinders, to interview community members and collect information that will enable the sharing of community stories in a dignified and accurate manner, and to invite collaborators to partner alongside these communities to enable positive impact.

If you have a passion for communities, enjoy having conversations or like to explore new places and meet new people, we're inviting you to join us as Pathfinders to map a village in Selangor. Find out more about this village below!

About Kampung Orang Asli Bukit Lagong

Kampung Orang Asli Bukit Lagong is a Temuan village located in the Bukit Lagong area near Batu Caves, Selangor. Established in the 1940s and officially gazetted in the 1960s, it is home to about 43 families, surrounded by natural treasures such as forests, rivers, and waterfalls. The community values strong relationships, tradition, and mutual support, coming together often for gotong-royong and cultural celebrations like Hari Moyang. They continue to practise traditional crafts, herbal medicine, and community-based activities.

While the village is vibrant and united, there are aspirations for growth and improvement. The community hopes to build new homes to address overcrowding, improve road lighting with solar panels, and develop facilities that support ecotourism and agriculture.

Who are Pathfinders?


Pathfinders assist the Lead Pathfinders to engage with communities. They use conversational skills to gather accurate information and data, which can then be used to tell compelling stories that inspire change.

Pathfinders must be able to speak Malay at a basic conversational level.
