The Batek community is one of the multicultural groups of the orangari people of Central Malaysia. Endicott (2004) described Bateks as the origin of the tropical rainforest of the Malay Peninsula in his book "Batek of the Malaysian Peninsula." According to Endicott, the word "Batek" was first used by colonists in the South Island. These settlers arrived on a boat and came from Southeast Asian islands. Today, for aggression, Batek lives mainly in Taman Negara National Park. They are nomads and collectors and the exact location of their place of residence depends mainly on the general extent of the area where they live. Batek and mining - collecting society as a nomad community have existed for centuries and they have established and maintained a rather unique culture from the Malaysian general community social structural regulations ( Endicott, 2004; Endicott, 1974)
