ABSTRACT
Paul Schebesta has some further interesting information of a general nature about the Trang-Patalung group. Coming south on the western side of the Peninsula the next groups of Negritos that are known to exist are in S. Kedah. Passing to the Negritos of the valley of the Perak River: Groups frequent the neighbourhoods of Lenggong, Sumpitan and Kuala Kenering and call themselves Semak Belum or Semak Belong, being known to the Kintak Bong and Menik Kaien as Lanoh. The Grik people, very similar to those of Lenggong, are, according to Mempelam, called Menik Semnam by his group, and those of Belukar Semang Menik Hangat. These appear to be the same as the Kintak Nakil. Skeat reported the presence of a Negrito group on the northwestern shore of the Inland Sea in S. Peninsular Siam, but saw only their sleeping-places in a rock-shelter, the people having left immediately before his arrival.
