Abstract

The dimension of education is one of the aspects that also reaches the most important needs of every person. With knowledge and education, people are able to create history in the pursuit of values and build the dignity of civilization. In line with the existence of the village for the past 60 years, the need for knowledge and education has not been ignored. The opening of the village in Sg. Layau, Kota Tinggi, Johor around the 1960s has been a turning point in the dimension of the importance and domination of the education world for Indigenous peoples in Sg. Layau specially, and in Malaysia in general. Although the Indigenous people are often seen as a community of laggards in every aspect, often seen as isolating themselves from the outside world and even seen as rejecting modernization, but the reality of the Indigenous people also has the pulse of life of its own and quite unique that should be understood and respected by all as human beings. Their resilience in survival has shown that they are also capable of success. The discussion in this paper is more focused on the study of the success and capabilities of Indigenous peoples in education in one of the southern regions of Malaysia where not only has it been proven at the national level, but also at the international level.
