[edit] Just wondering

Would the village folks or nomadic tribes or ppl living in the jungle be considered to be living in poverty because they earn less than a certain amount of income? Even though they have a fulfilled, happy, and are living in a self subsistent society? Like some org asli or penans? kawaputra^hello! 21:14, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Squatters in Kuala Lumpur

I highly doubt the figures given about a quarter of KL's population live in squatters' settlement. I've been to KL recently and I haven't seen a sudden increase in squatters. In fact, I would say that the number of squatters in Kl is very little.Wai Hong (talk) 14:10, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
