trying to disrupt the confirmation proceedings by storming the u.s. capitol one person shot and killed. the washington tell the news from berlin coming up next our documentary new york city is rich and poor i'm terry marsh and thanks for watching. young moroccan immigrants. they know the police will stop god. that's the rudest solution. they know their flights could be fatal. baggage is not an option shattered dreams starts january 18th on t.w.

. this is the most species rich and oldest rainforest on. 113000000 years old. long. haul. it's located in a malaysian part of borneo it's still home to 40 tribes and ethnic groups including the pentagon. on a low budget but i think that what we think the when the forest we find wild boars

talk of fruits and medicine. when the forest rich are wonderful and we're connected with our ancestors but when i dealt. with you but now i reminds us of a beautiful time when the forests are still intact. and that. they're living environment is threatened. by huge palm oil plantations are eating down wife found out and father into the ancient forest and destroying the rain forest ecosystem. is what the pentagon calls back home it means both forest and wild 16009

live in this part of malaysia only a few dozen are still no mountains roaming the forests like ancestors did just hunters and gatherers. the least i hear is this right by feeling the effects of the whole is too small. for that overhung. anti-gun belong to one of the last communities of forest nomads in borneo. in the forest searching whole. lot he would he would be too good for the poison of the tree. we still come here to tap the poison this is a part of our history this is how our ancestors lived hoping for a while before bread and fruit god and it also allows us to defend ourselves

against enemies that are. their ancestors also tapped the strain for the poison inside. thousands of indentations in the bark bear witness to this ancient tradition. and his tribe live in the forests of the malaysian state of saurabh located on the island of borneo until a few years ago the virgin forest here covered an area. of germany. 90 percent of it has been cleared by timber companies.

the habitats of the bananas becoming smaller and smaller. and the others have set up camp for a few weeks on the many river. their small community consists of just 9 people. it's a sustainable life in harmony with nature. hommes england's food on the table and the forest provides the necessary poison. yes there is a weather wild boar all animals die from this poison within 10 minutes. if you prepare salt with it your died within 5 minutes because it's so close unless you're in but that if you just. flee makes

in the poison is a long process. it must cyma until it has become a think viscous paste. the women are responsible for the domesticated animals the dogs copy camp while the monkeys make noise if any poisonous snakes try to clive's. the boys in is evenly distributed on the arrows and dried in the fire. fluffy the 9th if they are not now will go to

a place where there's a salt there. through the hole through the maybe some monkeys or deer will come along or they're not. now. the forest gives the pentagon people everything they need to survive. it's a garden pharmacy and supermarket and all rolled into one. thank you so. when i was a small boy i went down to the river to hunt animals. i like to be a. few. the rainforest is the central ponce of the pentagon's identity it's the final resting place of that ancestors and

the center of their spirituality culture and history. these forest nomads have no written record of that contre but i know about 2000 words but trees some promise as the forest dies so does that language and that culture too timber companies want and landed all costs they have already offered paying my good money motorcycles and a calm. these legs are my car i don't need any of that. forest as a bait created by god i'm not interested in your money. the forest provides us with everything we need i live here with my children my grandchildren my people tell me but i can just go away i don't want you here that's what i told them about money.

you know you and. the hunters imitate the corner track in order to extract it. one point and dot one hit. however this time it wasn't a idea. that i shot this world with the poison we got yesterday in just one minute it died. in the forest is vital for their survival that's why they treat the environment with the greatest respect.

but a tough fight has begun. malaysian timber companies are invading wound. they want to clear the forest by plantation. to hold the bulldozers or multinational firms the pan am set up simple wooden block a sea. of money 5 times we said ok and each time they destroyed it again with it when you look at that no they don't know if they destroy this house as well we don't know what will do we bought a house in the middle of this logging road to stop them. the idea did actually temporarily stop the timber company a small success in an otherwise on fan fight a fight that revolves around the question of who actually owns the forest. i meant

that not the love me the idea that the rain forest will be destroyed worries me i don't know when the storm will return and call myself a cup of forest as a whole we have to take care of it in the i mean if something is broken it must be repaired that water because the bad weather the store can come back at any time but now because of the timber companies or our store and. a warning to the longest to keep off a slant but one house alone one nonstop the logging companies for long. people like penn macoutes are an anime of the industry. trade in tropical timber is a $1000000000.00 business malaysia is one of the world's largest in back sports with a turnover of almost $5000000000.00 euros it's. the only one that money that if no $1.00 pays attention to the forest to the mountains

and no one protects the animals of the forest then the destruction will get worse we will continue this blockade as long as necessary. so i cut our land so i got if they're not here we can move freely nobody got no thanks to the blockade they haven't been showing up. but they'll come back some time we just don't know where we're going to work up a thought i cannot. unpaved tracks come through the jungle connecting the tribes with one another and my guts uncle sager gave up his own life in 2000 these forest no mans became settled farmers they now live in a house with a corrugated iron roof. no

. been done but. it would have sounded if you compare our old life with today it was better in the past in our life today is more difficult because of the many illnesses. and there are other problems in the forest one could temper companies don't care about what happens to us and it's not fair not because they're going to. souvenirs some of the past 15 sided plastic bags. their home government and i think i get sad when i look at these pictures and it already where we were happy when we lived in a forest in the mountains and by the rivers. these photos are

a treasure because they remind me of this past life ringback. the reason for giving up the old life was his youngest son james. not the guy that my child was disabled you know when we settled down because we could no longer carry him through a forest. since then we've been living here permanently. eventually swellings appeared all over his body here and here. his skin became infected it became sore at will and he melted like the wax in front of our eyes that was the end of his suffering then he died it was a terrible disease. and.

mccann or a few severely disabled some on the centenary life had their promise so lies sega had to sound parts of his forest to a timber company. and it's not only their timber companies at the edge of the village excavators from the state oil company petronas are digging through the forest to build a road to a nearby pipeline so i say get a benefit from this idea that he provided us with solar cells and electricity for light bulbs so we. light at night they should improve our lives our new government has initiated this.

new collides with the old sunshine enormous contrasts challenge the pentagon's way of life every day. the move towards a new reality is inevitable it comes at the expense of us so sufficient life in the forest and the decision is out of the hands. that even though we now live here as farmers. we still go hunting in the forest. and will never forget our culture and our way of life. that human thought or it will always remain a part of us that we are going to make for them. with

this new way of life comes agriculture basic foods no longer have to be laboriously sorting the forest the accounts of a dude near the village. to say tree is one of the most important food sources the palm contains a carbohydrate rich starch that can be extracted from its palm. where right that it takes a long time to plant a rice field but was a go we only have to cut it down and we can eat it the same day a month in one now compared to that growing rice is very time consuming that although if the field is bring it out we can have a yield all year round and that. the conservation of dry rice is something the pentagon have learned from british colonisers missionaries and neighboring indigenous tribes.

in number one in june we got the small trees that july and august we burn the fields in september we planted one in the in march we start harvesting. the rice is right now. a lot well for them. meanwhile the. dried directly off to the harvest and then processed. and turn it into a tough wind that served with almost every meal it has little taste and hardly any nutrients but it provides them with the necessary carbohydrates.

and. the finance way of life has changed considerably since the middle of the trying to be a century they still live in the forest with a few exceptions that no longer no magic in the last 50 years almost all communities have settled down in one place. on sundays a bamboo janie's used to people to a church service. over the last century the original animistic plan and look i'm delighted to christianity and about ties to by australian missionaries.

however a belief in the spiritual power of animals and the forest is still deeply rooted in that culture. and. the thanks of the destruction of the forest can be found directly every day game which is a vital source of meat is becoming scarce the native bearded page is increasingly rare here. more likely. but that the 2 of us went to the to learn river because the rain forest there is not yet destroyed. at 5 o'clock in the morning we saw a wild boar taking a mud bath and we laid in wait for that more we shot it with

a blowgun and then tracked it down a dollar at 6 o'clock in the morning it threw up and died with a. in pen on culture the collective stands about the individual everything is shattered because everyone knows that at some point they'll be dependent on others sharing is a survival strategy. everyone has a role to play including some lies wife. well you know we were at the house we make baskets bags and blowpipes to earn a little bit of money and that's how we survived letting it you know. make up new not buy and beg if the company takes all the timber all the sago trees

and all the return and what are our chances of survival. the forest is destroyed the wood has than it and they haven't even compensated us no more rice will support what good is a polluted river. and my goods and his tribe of the last pan-am living as far as nomads for them the day begins with a laborious search for food. unlike in his uncle's village the sago palms here lie many miles inside the forest and must 1st be transported down the river before they can be proud of sandstone the banks everyone helps.

and the goods youngest son and his 2 siblings were born in the forest he doesn't know how old he is age and time play no role in the life of the pen and. there's not even a word for birthday that bananas say the day on which the child found from the mother's womb. and onto the forest floor. i go one way i never went to school i only feel safe in the forest the forest is my school i know how to make arrows. first i learned to shoot birds with them squirrels then i learned to hunt bigger rodents and monkeys always and. this is the

school we had as children in the forest. i support my father because he protects the forest which is the right thing to do now where do we get food if the forest is destroyed we must protect the forest if we don't find food will face a huge problem. the forest of sauron whack this is the question that everything else revolves around. the banana were already living in these forests long before the remains of the british crown colonies so why are. north borneo and became the kingdom of

malaysia in 1963. but under malaysian law for indigenous people who want to climb land rights must prove that they lived in the area before 1958 the pan am lack the documents to prove this. below i have 3 children a girl and 2 boys but all 3 were born in the forest but we have no birth certificate. without a birth certificate that can be no citizenship and that one hope remains. good dancer a treasure in a plastic notebook for 15 years and an teams together with can talk refers from switzerland's mansoura found have been mapping the territory of the indigenous

people a total of 10000 square kilometers they have charted over 7000 rivers and streams and more than 1800 mountain ranges that. before i woke up. with this map we can prove that this is our territory and that our villages are here legally. that's why it's so important for us here now among them that were nominated by me del and the by the way with these maps the pentagon can for the 1st time demonstrate the use of van territories and their historical boundaries in 2011 accordance around whack recognise the indigenous land rights of the banana for the 1st time. since then more and more of them are going to court. because i have the same problem. this group led by chief who count to prune

has taken on the palm oil company radiant lagoon. in december 28th seen the malaysian company illegally invaded traditional pen and territory on the edge of the moon national park. last march when the logging companies began to massively invade our forest we set up this blockade to protest. the months that occupied the access roads to the rainforest in august $2900.00 they filed a lawsuit to be folded supremum court of cirrhotic the verdict is stone pending in the meantime ungrouped continued to patrol the area to prevent the palm oil company workers from returning.

100 names. of man some people are angry at us because they want to get money. but they support us doesn't. and it's not our forests. they are angry with us we don't care. products are popular with chinese. tourists visiting the national palm. we have to protect. their. if we don't have the.

evidence against the palm oil companies. yes. if you think that means that we're not used for a lot up there a lot. of pressure by. the good speech. yeah and.

it's not. just that. and then there. are. people who are this is the footprint of. it it's. just the minutes. or so in this vicious very good place. yeah you can hear. from a. legal dispute between the palm oil company and the phenomenon is not the company is not. a market value of $10000000.00 mine is rotting in the tropical heat.

what has happened to this land can be clearly seen here they told us that the work in our forest would be to our advantage that palm oil was for us but we don't want that and they wanted to negotiate prices with us but we refused. here in palm trees. grow here again and i'm happy. and my father loved this approach it grows naturally in this forest to taste delicious and it helps ward off costs. it doesn't need because it grows wild that's a good. you know. the country's big companies are up. a mistake but they'll at least win the battle over

the forest in the conservation reza. in august last year there's no more encroachment on us it's been that's all that he wants on the ground he won because because there's no logging anymore. the end. of few rufino we are in if one or boarder get yesterday to do it if they are going to be expected to have extra money that you want to fight. it out in what. the hell you are.

on some losing how. you. feel you feel. the need. internationally. even if they have settled down and much has changed in their lives respect for nature remains an important part of their control identity. their. i mean this is what we call supper wrote. we make separate routes to honor the

animals of the forest. service. long ago that our ancestors hunted big animals like leopards rhinos and tape or. what have then they made the separates to pay respects to the animals and to appease their spirits and more. over 20 years 5.99 drives lawsuits have petered out without success. it's a sensational victory to be able to stump up powerful company like radians lagoon

not least for not. learning. it gives them a little breathing space in this exhausting fight over the forest they have called home for generations. the word of this partial success has also reached paying my googe one of the last far as nomads he too is still active in the fight for his land. together with his wife he meets regularly with other have been and chiefs. we have to go now there are plenty of fish you can catch. we'll be back on sunday

now we have to go on. they here and don't go anywhere. to. the nearest jungles suffer mentors upon 5 hours away from their village they hitchhike the route. in the end even the calm one take the many 5 a. back destination is the settlements of long. many. for timber companies and on palm oil bomb technicians. in the eyes of paying my goods and call me dr i pay too high a price for

a little prosperity. 3 thing at the. core by forests and. nobody lives there just like killing their own mental. discourse the hear this see the money here difficult about their culture their. history their relate to kill their children then the next generation. i couldn't live like this you see it's very hard i couldn't live here.

if i had to give up my forest to get electricity i wouldn't want that. i would only accept help from the government if i didn't have to destroy my forest to go. travel from. to meet with malaysian government officials. are asked to fill out forms to obtain identity cards so that they can be recognized as citizens of malaysia. wanted to weigh all my they've asked the government to take care of things they said in their i will do it. i've been waiting years and nothing's happened.

but if i have an id card that i can protect my land my consumer in court. this idea would allow me to. negotiate over my land block over the rivers and all that. i got sick i can get treatment in a hospital no mail more no money the new. government officials keep everyone waiting eventually the plan and realize i've been stood up you know. we paid a lot of money for example for gasoline to get here it rained all the way we're very disappointed we've been waiting for these i.d.'s for many years now and they're still not here.

to get here i had to drive by car then my motorcycle and cross a big river. i could have had an accident with a car a motorcycle or in the river. where i would have happened then. besides the pipeline goes through my land and i haven't even received just mark up and station. the chief so now that without i.d.'s there can be no land no compensation and no future. and makes his way back disappointed. you know what i can you up until everything became all the way along near ivy i

mean the discussions and everything were good but it makes me sad that the people responsible for our ideas did not convert. to the you know what. malaysia is the largest producer of palm oil in the wound and another 700000 hectares of rainforest to be cleared for plantations in the coming years. lee unique environment and home of the pan am is endangered. the forest now mounts alms giving up. on me. not like the government to protect the forests not only the government can

protect the forests. don't allow logging companies into the forests that's what i want for my children and grandchildren and i why. i am going with my children and grandchildren protect the forests just redo the card for that a few spots of rain forest preserve the we don't know long body of a body i believe it's possible and if those in charge are on our side and if the lawyers help us and later help our children i thought i had grandchildren. probably almost get into.
